Puss in boots in the old City

Every year, a local artist (also humanist!) prepares something special for kids in the old town. He works with unemployed people, and sets up a "witches path", or "fairy village", or this year, a walk through the old town in the steps of Puss in Boots.

We decided to discover this part of the old town of Fribourg, at the very bottom of the town, surrounded by the Sarine river.

This part of the old town was built in the 16-17th centuries. Most of the houses are still up, and have been restored over the time. Some are really neat, and even their "modern touch" is well integrated in the landscape.

As in any old town the streets are very narrow, and I don't really enjoy driving there with the Sienna! But then I remember that busses use them as well, so they're not that bad! The wooden bridge was built in 1250!

Seen from down there, the Cathedral looks built up a hill. But when I ran next to it the other day, I realized that I still had a good climb past it, to make it to the finish!

This little chapel is part of the old walls.
