This album features photos from Orleans in October 2021. It features several shots of the Sainte-Croix cathedral and around the old town, though the highlight is certainly the banks of the Loire at dusk.

In mid-October 2021, I took a short trip to Orleans in North-Central France. Situated at the northmost point of the Loire river, Orleans is surrounded by forests, which make it a good place for weekend walks.

This album features several shots of the Sainte-Croix cathedral and around the old town, though the highlight is certainly the banks of the Loire at dusk.

Below is a video of a few geese swimming upstream in the Loire:
