The Beaches of Normandy Weekend: Part 5
... huffing and gasping as if we had just made it to the top of the Mayan ruins and there wasn't enough Oxygen to provide for our lungs. The view, though vast and impressive, was really quite ugly. Since it was low tide, all that surrounded the mount for miles was brown, muddy, flat quicksand. There isn't much foliage, and, due to the construction, there are a bunch of construction vehicles breaking up the smooth sand. Apparently, walking from the ...

Het was bewolkt, maar het regende niet. En we hebben er heerlijk gegeten. Eerst hebben we de volledige tour des remparts gedaan en dan zijn we de kleine straatjes ...
