Yes Normandy was fabulous with much more for us to go back to later. The coastline is long and wild in places, with a scattering of beautiful spots along the way. Next stop is Brittany 😉😃👍🏻🚐 Trev

We are having a lot of fun. It’s nice to find the right pace and not chase around doing too much. We definitely enjoy sitting around the van in the evenings reflecting on the day and planning the next one. A glass or two of vino also helps 🤣 Take care, 💙🚐 Trev

We went to that site twenty or more years ago and what we noticed the beach was spotless, it felt like a cemetery and what I remember about the American cemetery was a large painting in the visitors centre. One souvenir I did bring back was a small amount of sand from each beach, cheap but priceless.

Eww. I don't like radish. I'm not sure what Joe was insinuating, but think I'll just leave that whole comment alone LOL. Love that water view. SWEET lighthouse! Ugh steps. I hate stairs lol. Nice that you're getting an update of what number you're on as you climb them 😂That view from up top sure was worth the climb, though! Absolutely beautiful. Wow that is quite the cemetery. Sad that so many lost their lives. Cemeteries like that are always a bit overwhelming and can cause a lump in the throat. This reminds me of Arlington a bit. Goes on seemingly forever. Ok now I gotta end with the same word I started with. Laundry, eww!
