The clouds are thick today. My wife and I managed to go out for a 3 km walk this morning. For the rest of the morning, I continued working on my trip planning for the autumn. So far, Saint Malo (3 nights), Caen (3 nights), Bayeux, D-Day beaches, Rouen (4 nights), Le Havre and Honfleur, and Dieppe have been planned in relative detail. I am now working on the three-day stay in Amiens. Next will be a two-night stay in Lille, our last stop in France on the first third of the six-week journey. All the accommodations for the six weeks have been booked, so the basics of the trip are in place, including times and trains to reach our various ports of call.
I will be returning to my current “works in progress” later this afternoon, as to spend too much time on the minutiae of trip planning gets to be too much for extended periods of time. I do want to get some sunshine time as well, whenever it comes out during the afternoon.
The sun just came out, so I’ll sign off for now. A la prochaine, mes amis.
