Location! Location! Location!

That's what the Real Estate People chant all the way to the bank! And so do the churches...one in particular. And, we the tourists, don't we flock to see it all! But this one was special. Have you ever seen a church with a drawbridge? To keep out...what? The Tourists?

Certainly not the believers! But one can't go past the location! It is unique! And what a view! It is well worth a visit even if it does test your knees...a mighty climb to the top of Marseilles, France.

And what a view! On a clear day one can even appreciate the islands surrounding Marseilles. Of course we were on our Roman tour but how could we ignore this church on the distant hill? Believers or not...history was there to see...on our free afternoon.
