Paris to Normandy Day 6 - 10/11/16

Bonjour! I realized today that I named this adventure incorrectly!  We are no longer in Paris we left last night and we arrived in Vernon this morning at 6 am.  Wifi is not as fast so can't get as many pictures to load up.  Hope these few will give you a perspective of our trip.  I will keep trying each day!

We woke up to a foggy morning and after a wonderful breakfast we got ourselves ready to leave the boat for our excursion to visit the Monet Foundation in Giverny where the artist, Monet's, house and the famous Japanese Gardens that he painted so often are locate.
Michael found a kiwi not sure if you can tell.
 Monet's Lily Pond that he painted over 300 times







Monet's Kitchen! Check out all the copper!!!




After our tour we returned to the ship to enjoy a Taste of Normandy - a buffet-style selection of specialties from Normandy along with entertainment from Stefano on the accordion.



After a brief rest we headed back out to take a walking tour of Vernon!

The Castle Keep of the Medieval times! 
 Notre Dame Vernon!


Then we enjoyed some hot chocolate at a nice outdoor cafe enjoying the beautiful afternoon.  Then we visited Notre Dame Vernon!

Freida, Grace, Susan and I headed back to the boat while the others took a walk over the bridge for more pictures!

Dinner was spectacular! But I can't get the pictures to load. Promise once I can or when we get home to share more!


 Passez un merveilleux mercredi
