Good morning...oh, what

Good morning...oh, what's that? Just Mont St. Michel. Go back to sleep.

The light is slowly dawning upon a boy as he reads about the history of Mont St. Michel.

Day 15

Soooo... there's this abbey out on some rock in the middle of some bay somewhere in Normandy (and not Brittany!). You may know it as Mont St. Michel. I call it, Frenchy Space Mountain.

No, I really don't. I do call it awesome, incredible and holitastic. It's a little out of the way and there's nothing else around, but it's worth the time to see this.... this little house of worship. There's not a lot I can say about it because my vocabulary is smaller than what you expect. No, go smaller....smaller. Yes! Never fear, Cylinda will expound on it, I'm sure. Her vocab size (and her use of it) frightens me.

But I have videos. Woooo... of MSM:

We left Normandy in the afternoon by taking the train from Caen back to Paris. Thanks for a wonderful vacation-within-a-vacation! I'll come back and eat more apples. (Non non, svp, on n'a plus de pommes!)
