3rd October: Mont St. Michel
Today is our third day in Normandy in northern France.Le Mont-Saint-Michel is a rocky island off the coast of Normandy connected to the mainland by a thin strip of land which used to be covered at high tide. A Romanesque Abbey sits on top of the 'Mont'.
It has an interesting story and an amazing history which you can read about on:
I think we'll probably be visiting Mont St Michel again in the morning.
In the afternoon we'll travel 156 miles through Britanny - via Fougères and Laval - to just north of Tours.
We're going to be staying in a self-catering cottage at Chateau du Plessis which we'll use as a vase for seeing various chateaux in the Loire Valley.
Just got to work out where and when we buy breakfast for tomorrow!
