We finally made it to Normandy, after a beer-and-frites- laden stop in Brussels and a longer than anticipated drive in our rented Fiat Talento. (Google it. Then feel sorry for yours truly, driving that beast around traffic circles and careening down cobblestones alleys.)

Happy Monday from the land of long lunches and lazy afternoons.
