Mont Saint Michel

I forgot to give the final bowling score: I finished in last place with a score of 33.  Yes, I played 10 rounds.  I would feel pretty bad but Laetitia only had 35 and Christophe was in the 50's so at least it's not just me- acutally I fit in pretty well.

Saturday we went to Mont Saint Michel (pictures below) this incredible city/castle is only accessible when the tide is low.  When the tide is high it is a floating city. It was built in 709 so it was pretty stinkin cool. Here are some pictures from our day.

PS- Incase you haven't figured it out: you can always click on a picture to see it bigger

Okay, so I borrowed this one for the internet- but I swear I took all the others! This was Mount Saint Michel in 1900


The view as we were walking up (ignore the construction on the side)
Once inside and looking out

Lots of steps inside so it was a bit of a struggle for this little guy

Louis looking out- he refuses to smile for my photos

Took this one for you, Dad 
Caught him mid-whine, this grumpy look is one he sports often 

Our lunch menu at a famous place known for their omelets - which are 10% normal omelet and 90% Egg foam- very interesting meal. We sat at the same table Margaret Thatcher did when she visited

The family

Justine and I (I'm not playing favorites- she is just the only one who will take a photo with me)

Kinda looked like Diagon Alley - I tried to explain this but apparently no one was as into Harry Potter as me

  1. Maybe you were pronouncing "Diagon Alley" wrong like Harry in the movie, and that's why they didn't understand..
