Although Ruth's eyes are closed I still like this picture. Those are daiseys that we are standing beside and they are huge; I've noticed that in France that they have large flowers. This fortress was important in the early 1400's as the British wanted to control the river traffic when Bretony was a part of their territory. After Bretony was ceded to France this no longer was needed as a military fort. It used to have walls that extended around a courtyard also.
