We have been trying to take advantage of Rusty's free time by exploring our little city. There is so much to do here, it's great! Thirty historical monuments, 3 massive cathedrals, a river walk (along the canal), gardens, forests, a museum...the list goes on. Have I convinced anyone to come visit? ;)
We recently spent a rainy Friday night at the Musee de Cambrai. The museum was much bigger than expected. We perused the four levels up until closing time. We had only come in about an hour and a half before it closed, so we asked if we could come back in the morning and to my surprise (I always brace myself for the "It's not possible" response that is said way too often out here), they said yes! There were no signs in English, so they gave us a book to borrow. We spent so much time flipping through the hundred pages to find whatever we were looking at, that our visit took longer than expected. We went back the next morning, got our book again, and set out to read all we could- things definitely aren't as interesting when you have no idea where they are from.
