Stage two

We left the convent at 9 o'clock this morning, stopping in St. Omer to visit the cathedral. We continued to ride on a beautiful day with ideal conditions to Arras, where we visited the cathedral and had lunch in the picturesque public square.


Janet and Maggie have been wonderful support persons. They buy groceries, meet us when we need them, and respond to emergencies. Here's a picture of them.              
                                  

After riding 86 miles, the longest portion of our pilgrimage, we arrived at a beautiful farmhouse. We celebrated Mass, had a fantastic French dinner, and prayed evening prayer. We will have no problem going to sleep tonight!
