I'm Scottish. My father was a French teacher and we travelled to France every summer growing up. I visited Mont St. Michel aged 12/13. Things must have changed as we drove over the causeway and drove on to Mont St. michel. This was not the first causeway I visited. The first causeway I visited was in England just over the Scottish borders in the area called Lindisfarne or Holy Isle in Northumberland. I live 15 minutes from Loch Lomond so love seeing other places with lots of lochs, lakes or mountains.

I thoroughly loved your authentic take on your top 10 of Normandy. It would be awesome if you did a video that documents the mileage to these destinations from your hotel in Normandy and why you chose the place to stay in Normandy? Thank you.

Congrats Ryan, perfect images and editing as usual. I consider going Normandy this Spring. The attack on Point du Hoc was commanded by a Texan named James E. Rudder who graduated and later presided Texas A&M University. As a French exchange student there in 2005, I remember that Rudder had his statue on campus. I don't know how they could climb this cliff with ropes under German fire.

Thanks so much Alain! I’m excited for your to visit Normandy. I didn’t know that about James Rudder. It is just wild to think about them scaling they cliff! Such incredible history.

We went in 2019. That was amazing to visit. We were there the week after the 75th anniversary- there were flowers left at every memorial. We don’t do tours but made the exception for this - the guides are so knowledgeable and usually one or 2 stops on private land that otherwise we wouldn’t have access too - it was worth the cost!

6:17 i used to go to swim there (my parents live 5 kms away), really good mood and landscapes, you should have mentionned the "mico" region (la Hague) instead of the beach, because the whole "micro" region is beautiful, nice video !

I didn't get a notification about this new post so I'm glad I just checked KZread out this morning. You could easily do a part two. Normandy is absolutely full of wonderful things to see and it's all in a fairly compact area. I love Norman villages with all their half-timbered buildings. Rouen has a world famous cathedral worth seeing. I know you like castles and Richard the Lionheart's Chateau Gaillard is a huge castle on a promontory above the Seine. The Bayeux Tapestry was made just ten years after William the Conqueror's victory and tells the story in woven pictures. Jump to the 19th century and there's Monet's garden in Giverny with its water lilies that;s between Normandy and Paris. I do agree about the magic of Mont St.-Michel. Merry christmas Happy new Year and all that and another year of great trips.
