Saturday afternoon we visited Reims (a city of about 200,000 mid-way between Paris and Charleville).
First stop - Pommery champagne cellars. It turns out that they were designed along the lines of the Oxford-Cambridge style. We didn't do much inside (other than look at lots of champagne bottles, of different types and sizes but all equally shiny).

Stained glass doors that were recreated from special pieces of glass: they are ridgy due to the metal (platinum?) they contain.

Champagne tasting. It was yummy.

Finally some sun!
