France with Nana-Continued

Mont Saint Michel

The main point of interest for our trip to France was really Mont Saint Michel. We had all been enamored with pictures we had seen of the beautiful castle surrounded by water. I think most of us felt like it was a dream that we were actually going to be there. It was an overcast morning, we set out pretty early so that we could see the castle at high-tide. Here is our first glance of the castle in the distance.

I believe we took this picture on our way out, after the sun had burned off the clouds.
Elsa rejoicing with us that we had finally made it! Yahoo.
Ansel standing in the courtyard of the castle-pretending to be the court jester.
It was like a labrynth climbing to the top. A very high up long labrynth.
These angel wings were set-up on a platform in one of the gardens in the castle. They provided much entertainment for them. They pretended to be prophets heralding the coming of Jesus.

We spent a wonderful day wondering the chapels and gardens of this magnificent castle. Before we left Henry and Ansel posed for one last shot atop of cannon balls.
