Couiza

After missing our bus yesterday morning (Millie keeps sleeping-in and we are not complaining) we decided that our neighbouring town couldn't take that long to walk to. It's between 2 and 3 kilometres away so surely we could get there in half an hour. Ahhh, how we long for our youth because back then we were fitter and not carrying a toddler on our backs! 40 minutes (or so) later we arrived feeling a little warm and moist but Couiza is a nice little town with some lovely bridges and streets to explore and enjoy. We poked our head into the local church where they are doing some serious renovations and were surprised by what we found. There is a little taster in the photo below. Also this whole area was once known for producing hats and what do we find in Couiza, just what we were looking for... a big hat! That's it now, we are on the hunt for the big everything. Cheese? Snails? Frogs Legs? Wine bottle? Stay tuned.
