Dragon's Lair

When our friends the Tomaneks came to visit, we took them to see the Caverne du Dragon, or Dragon's Lair. This was a large limestone quarry that was used by both the Germans and the French during World War I, located right on the front lines, which are shown in the photo here. 

After the visit, we had a picnic at the ruins of the Vauclair Abbey nearby. Here is the old dovecote.

Since our last visit, they've added a medicinal herb garden. 

Then on our way back, we stopped at the chapel and WWI cemetery in Cerny-en-Laonnais.
