While Lynne & Danny were visiting, we took them to the newly-reconstructed observation tower in the Retz forest. The original tower was an observation post for the French army during World War I.

| We can see our town! |
Then we stopped on the forest road, and walked to the WWI British cemetery on the side of the departmental road. (Rather dangerous... but nowhere to park closer to it.)
Then we went on to the town of Septmonts, to visit its castle.
