Cathedrale Notre Dame de Bayeux

Today M, Mark and I packed our luggage, left Paris and headed out to the town of Bayeux. We caught two trains, one of which was a really nice two and a half hour ride through scenic France.

We lugged our massive bags and suitcases to our next hotel, (Hotel De Brunville/Luxembourg) and checked in to a nice room which was slightly bigger …
