The Mont St.michel et St Malo - posted by Renee






salut!!!!
the mont St. Michel is beautiful! St. Michel  is on top of this mountain surrounded by water. its like snow whites castle all by itself. the abbey part of the island is located at the top of the mountain and a little village  grew up around the abbey making it its on town. the town is soo cute, you enter the town through the collasal stone gates with a huge metal gate and everything then you are in the town which is one long road that goes to the doors of the church and on either side of you are little shops and after your amazing cardio excercise you reach the gothic style building. if your in the architecture i highly suggest going its unbelievable what they could do with stone a 1000 something years ago.

we had lunch in the gardens of the monistary which over looked the marshlands surrounding the mountain.

we then went over to St. Malo and had some free time to go shopping! we went together and spoke french most of the time since sabrina and naomi were both french. it was great and by the end i could understand the spoken french much better.
kenavo!
