Loire Valley, Travel photos Sunday’s Travel Photos – Blois February 11, 2012 Rosemary Kneipp 12 Comments Blois is in the heart of the Loire Valley and built on the Loire River. These photos are all of Gabriel Bridge, except the last, which is a gabarre, a traditional sailing boat for transporting goods.
How different this view of the Loire flowing under the bridge looks today- the surface is frozen over with ducks and swans ice skating on it! Reply
Beautiful!
I can’t wait to live there!
I remember this view!!!! Only I saw it in the summer, so the light was quite different.
It’s lovely, isn’t it? The photos were taken in October towards the end of the end.
