We are in Arras for a couple of days as we wanted some time to see the town after taking our day trip to Paris. Yesterday, after visiting the Pompidou centre we walked to the left bank and round by Notre Dame before returning to the Gare du Nord. It was a hot, humid day but a very pleasant evening when we returned. There are two large, cobbled squares surrounded by old buildings which are lit up at night by old style street lamps and the cathedral. At night it is very beautiful and is the main eating a drinking place in town.
Our holiday is now nearing then end and we shall be traveling to England, via Calais, in a few days time. The weather is looking better though and we should have a couple more days cycling before the bikes are mothballed for a future trip.
