Arrived in the Medieval town of Bayeux around 3pm this afternoon, the Aire is in a car park bang in the town centre & the place is stunning I discovered today that Bayeux was the first town In Framce to be liberated on June the 7th 1944. There some amazing buildings here including the best cathedral I've ever seen :-
Very atmospheric place. Met two Enlish. couples on there way back home. They were very envious of me just nicely arrived. Spoke to Ken last night & he told me he was coming over tomorrow for one night to bring half a ton of parquet flooring for their house in Brittany, arranged to meet up with him. Will be able to have shower at his too. Don't know if I mentioned the water pump has packed up so have will the dubious pleasure of finding a fitting a replacement . Those of you who know me well will realise this is a major task. It involves lying down, spaners, screw drivers & water hoses not to mention electrics. Whatch this space.
Looks lovely. Will have to add it to my list of places to visit.
ReplyDeleteDid you see the tapestry, Dad?
ReplyDeleteWe saw the tapestry two years ago Vicky, Dad Aunt Penny and Stefanie and I drove up to Calais and had a couple of hours in Bayeux.
