Gumbo's Pic of the Day, Jan. 4, 2015: Stairway to Heaven

Paul Heymont 1/4/155:00 AM

The unusual light in this shot invites the title, but the stairs actually rise not to heaven, but to the heavenly beauty of the Abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel in Normandy. As you might imagine, a town and abbey on an island mountain feature plenty of stairs!

For more on the abbey and the town, see Gumbo's several blogs by clicking HERE
