CABOURG

After an early start on Wednesday morning, we broke down 60 km from home, wait for a tow truck, let the car in a garage and went back home in a taxi! Second start after a quick lunch and we are finally in Normandy for a few days of "kite holidays".

We were lucky to rent near to the sea so the seashore is really close and in a few minutes we are on the beach.

We are going to share our days according to the tide times (and the wind) between kites and visits.

Many stud farms in this aera so harnessed trotting horses come every day on the beach.

Après quelques péripéties, nous sommes bien installés à Cabourg, tout près de plage avec un accès rapide et allons partager nos journées entre les cerfs-volants et les visites.

Beuvron sur Auge, lovely small village

Visite de Beuvron sur Auge, joli village du bocage normand, avec ses maisons à colombages.

Et de drôles d'habitants nichés dans les luminaires.

Visite de la boutique "l'âne bleu", vrai caverne d'Ali Baba qui vend principalement des écharpes.

There is a real pigeon nested here!

The "blue donkey" shop, full of a lot of objects and mainly selling lovely scarves (oh luckyly I needed a new one).

Juno Beach and the Canadian WW2 Museum.
