Nantes

We had a 2 night stay in the busy port city of Nantes before heading back to Heathrow.  Nantes is built over the Loire river but we were surprised that the riverside areas are rather unattractive.  It would have been a tiring walk around the city, so we opted for the mini tourist train to see some of the sights, but that meant few photographs because it was too difficult at speed and over cobbled streets.

it’s a huge people carrier

The best shot of the river we could find,
and even that’s not impressive
