2019 France Trip Day 6: Lyon to Tours

Tuesday, June 4, 2019

Today we were up early to leave for Tours. The bus was loaded and leaving by 8:15 am. Today was primarily a travel day with a long drive to Tours. To break up the trip, we stopped at a rest station and also in Bourges. We were able to get a few bites to eat at both stops, and we also had time for a quick tour of the cathedral in Bourges as well as the older part of the town. After, it was back on the bus for a few more hours.

When we arrived in Tours we took a tour of the city's old town area including a basilica to St. Martin. Both of the stops today included places trips from GJHS had never been! They were both amazing!

Because we did not have many pictures of students from our day of travel, here are some more pictures from earlier in the trip from Nice.
