So far in Bayeux...

So, still Monday but now we are in Bayeux, France- famous for THE tapestry of tapestries and the beaches that hold the memories of so many who fought for and liberated Europe in WWII. When we arrived, the wind was fierce and the streets were deserted. We found an atm, which ate Chris's card. The first hostel we went to was full. Since it was kind of shady anyway, we weren't too upset and found a wonderful hotel instead - Hotel le Bayeux! We love it already. This is our first room to ourselves, with walls! electricity! free water! free towels! free linens! It's heaven. Tomorrow we'll tackle the bank- hope they speak a bit of English and hope we can get the card returned. We'll play it by ear! Lots of back up plastics and every finger crossed.
Tomorrow we'll visit the tapestry and some beaches. Most likely, we'll stay here another night tomorrow and visit Mont St Michel on Wednesday.. but you never know how the wind might blow..
