What a day - Number one in the French series. It has been rainy and overcast most of the day and the trains from Cherbourg to Mont St Michal are more rare than hen's teeth. Since it was rainy, I figured I get a head start on the trip and take an earlier train than recommended and go to the transfer station at Lison. Mistake - Instead of spending three hours walking around Cherbourg I had three hours in a small country town with one bar/restaurant and a few closed shops. Then it started to rain heavily when I decided to see what may be around the corner. Aside from nothing, I was able to jump into a bus kiosk and avoid much of the wet. That was me in my blue rain coat and huge duffel bag watching the rain.
Well once I got to Mont St Michal, most things changed for the better. The owner of the B&B thought I must be nutz to not have a car - but that's me.
I when to the Mont as soon as I got into my room and I got some great shots - downloading now as I write - but I'll have to wait for Paris to really work on them if not until I get home.
Tomorrow I get up early and head for Rouen via Bayeux to see the tapestry. Two days in Rouen before Monday's trip into Paris. Yeah!
Talk Soon.
