Necklaces By The Coin

The Trouville market had a few booths selling glass necklaces for two euros each.  I bought a few.

Three Quarters

I'm three quarters up the side now.  It's getting hard to take decent pictures of this because of the big blank space and so on.

Glass Earrings

We found these in a blown glass shop off the harbor in Honfleur.  I think they're beautiful.

A Butterfly Wing

I popped this kit in my bag before leaving for vacation and got to work on it here in France. I've managed to get a butterfly wing started.  Still a lot of sky to do.

D Day Challenge Coin

 We went to Le Memorial in Caen.  It's got a really good overview of the war, with an emphasis on the liberation of Normandy.  While there, Andreas picked up this challenge coin.

Time to start in on the A.  Yay, progress!

Liquor Indulgence

 We visited the Pere Magloire ciderie in Pont L'Eveque, and paid for the higher level tour.  That didn't give us extra access to the place, but did give us tastings of higher level calvados and little gift bags.  Because we were able to taste the higher level calvados, we bought some.  It's just soooo much smoother and with a very distinctive, lovely flavor.  The boxed calvados is thirty years old.  Their pommeau was excellent, too, as was the creme de calvados.  That last tastes like apple Bailey's.  We bought some if it, and some gifts for others, too.  Evidently, we bought enough to get a couple of lower level bottles free.

Now to get everything back in the suitcases!
