One of the days we paid the "D-day beaches" and the D-day museum a visit. You can still see the remainders of the artificial harbors that the allied troops built there.

Here are a few shots of the remainder of the artificial harbour. |

This is what Mont St.
Michel looks like from the road. It all began as an oratory in the early
eighth century. After that it has been an oratory, a Benedictine monastery,
an Abby church and a prison.
If you want to know more about the island and the Abby please visit the travel guide of webfoot. |

This is the center part of the Abby on Mont St. Michel. It doesn't matter how many times you have read about it or look at it on pictures, when you get there its breathtaking! |
Along the shore lies the two villages Douville and Trouville, two classical French resorts for exhausted Parisians to rest at.

The beaches ... |

And some shopping of course... |
