We’re off to Albi today for an afternoon of inspiration. The Cathedrale is a sight to behold, more fortress-like than church-like, but splendiferous inside.
There is no surface left unpainted. The ceiling is an intricately designed fresco of gorgeous blue and gold, the walls are painted frescoes of very contemporary looking graphic patterns and the carved stonework is a marvel.
In addition, the Toulouse Lautrec Museum is close by, along with a riverboat ride, pedestrian-only old town and my favorite chocolate shop-Yves Thuries!
