Yolanda and Craig finally got the chance to take a hike. They went while the kids were in school, so didn't have a lot of time. Therefore they chose one of the shortest destinations, not all the way up Mont. Ste.-Victoire, but instead just to a chapel located on the hillside,
L'ermitage de Saint-Ser. The chapel was originally consecrated in 1001, although little remains of that original structure. The path was not difficult, about 35 minutes for us (including picture-taking) to walk up, although there is little shade and the temperature was in the high 20s - unlike what we'd be used to in mountain hikes in the Rockies or around Thunder Bay! The chapel is cute, although not really "used" - you can't light a candle and put it on the alter, for example.
