When your nephew and his girl come to visit you know things are going to go well when they bring you macarons, not just any old macarons but Angelina's macarons from Paris!


It was a great visit, on Wednesday we walked Fleur on the beach together then visited the American Cemetery at Colleville sur Mer. The Visitor Centre there is a wonderful tribute to those who gave their lives so that we could be free. The films and exhibitions, the personal stories they tell always bring a tear to my eye.


If you're ever in Normandy you should certainly make time to visit, then come around to my house for a cup of tea and maybe a macaron.
On Thursday we drove them to Bayeux for a little retail therapy followed by an afternoon enjoying self guided tours of the Cathedral and the Bayeux Tapestry.
On Friday they got busy in the garden clearing away masses of leaves and a fallen tree, a storm victim from a couple of months ago. They also cleared out one of our wood sheds of logs and restacked them in a more accessible area. What a team!


The days really flew by........before they left on Saturday Alex and I had fun recreating a photograph of the two of us taken on his first visit to Normandy in 1999.

Happy Days!
