Sunday is a good day to be a tourist in Nancy as the buses are free. Also the museums are half price entry for us oldies 😳
Stanislas was a former King of Poland and the last Duke of Lorraine. He built the square in the 18th century as a tribute to his son in law ,King Louis the 14th. (When I say he built it I’m guessing he had help )
There was the Sunday craft market going on under it so we went shopping
On the free bus now and we’re off to see Nancys world famous museum ‘l’école de Nancy ‘. ( thanks to some very timely advise from Di )
Two stories high, the entire house was a massive work of art. Well worth the visit thanks Di
On the walk back we fell in with this chap. He explained the retirement system and how much they get etc. They retire here at 62 which he had just reached and like New Zealand, it’s enough if you own your own house. Otherwise….
We aren’t going far tomorrow so we’ll have a late start after an enjoyable break
Paris to Paris
