After walking up 242 steps to the top of St Vincent’s Bell Tower for a view of the medieval city of Carcassonne, we had to share what we saw.
This is our photo of the day!

It was a perfect day 🙂 Seems like a lifetime ago now even though it was only about 3 weeks ago (if that) when we were there.

Legs were like jelly by the end of it but at least it was worth it 🙂

The ferris wheel is an interesting touch.

Hahah – you are not the first to mention that!! It adds a bit of character, doesn’t it? Makes everyone realise we weren’t really zapped back in time 😉

What a glorious vista. It’s worth the effort to see views like that. The weather looks fabulous too.

It was worth every step! Although we are feeling it in our thighs today 😉 The view was incredible!

What a fabulous view. It looks like a real Princess castle.

The view was worth the 242 steps!! Our thighs are feeling it today 😉
It is such a gorgeous place. We are very glad we visited 🙂

I love Carcassonne! I was there years ago and I still remember the Museum of Torture that was a mix of hilarious and creepy…

We are not really fans of visiting the Museum of Tortures but we have seen plenty around Europe. It’s seems a little gruesome. But you say hilarious, maybe we need to visit one? 😉

I have yet to travel Europe, sadly…someday soon I hope!

Hope you get to Europe some day 🙂 As like anywhere in the world, there is so many wonderful things to see!
