[Idyllchat] Right vacation in Normandy

[Russ Crum]

Vance,

Several years ago we visited Arromanches when we were on a Rick  
Steves tour through that area. If you haven't been there, I would  
highly recommend it. There is some very significant WW II history  
associated with Arromanches that is given scant coverage in American  
history texts. It was principally a British supply operation there.  
 From and engineering point of view, I found it fascinating.

Honfleur is also a very picturesque place to visit that is nearby. Of  
course, Mont St. Michel is also a famous place that is not far from  
Bayeux.
