Au revoir summer

Bonjour,

We have had a bit of a quiet week but trying to make the last of the warm sunny weather. There has been an invasion of cruise ships and ferries in Cherbourg lately, but that still doesn’t provide enough incentive for many local businesses to stay open. August means holidays and nothing interferes with that.

Here are a few random photos for your viewing pleasure.

This is a photo of Cherbourg from our highest point. I’ve tried to be a bit creative so hopefully you can read the text.
No idea who lives here but couldn’t resist a photo. This is not far from our place and it’s not that common for people to leave their gates open so we don’t often see these pretty places.
I could say that I was being very creative and deliberately set this up to take a photo of myself in the mirror. But that’s a lie. Didn’t even notice this until later when we were looking at the photos. We were checking out some people setting up for hang gliding. It looked like unorganised chaos – people and cars everywhere.
The cows here are so funny. Like seagulls, they always seem to face in the same direction. They just stand there munching away, but as soon as you stop to look at them, like some pre-organised arrangement, they all just freeze like statues. So many captions you could think of for this photo.

It’s that time of the year when the tides are really extreme. The photos above were about 5 hours apart. Where does all that water go?

Anyway, not much else to report this week.

Au revoir pour moment.

L & M
