Saturday I went to Mont St. Michel with CIREFE. I was in kind of a poopy mood, there was a lot of ugly construction, and the weather wasn't great, but it was still a good way to spend a day. The abbey was amazing... and huge. It's the main attraction there. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of the inside right now, but I did touch a 1200 year old stone wall. It felt old! The top of the tower has a gold statue of the Archangel Michael, which should protect it, but really just attracts lightning and causes fires. The rest of the place was basically tourist shops and little restaurants... not too exciting. I ate some pretty good ice cream though (not an omelette, like Rick Steves told me, oh well).
Buy ALL THE T-SHIRTS.
Me and Kelin. We found a little tiny quiet chapel behind the village and sat on the wall there for a long time because it was calm.
Don't wash your feet!!!!!!!!
Someday maybe I'll go back on a nicer day with less construction.
