Hi Barret guess what, this weekend, with Paul, we went to Mont-Saint-Michel It was great
Ah Le Mont-Saint-Michel I've heard of it but I'm not exactly sure what it is What is it like
It's an amazing place It's an island in Normandy In the north of France there is a very old abbey built more than a thousand years ago
And what's great is that the island is surrounded by water when the sea rises
Yes it was impressive When the sea rises the island becomes surrounded by water but there is a bridge that connects the island to the mainland so you can still go there even when the sea rises
A bridge, that's convenient But is it hard to get there when the sea rises
No not at all You just need to pay attention to the tide times. When we arrived the sea was far out so we could easily walk to the mountain
Once there, we walked through the small streets and saw shops but the most beautiful thing was the abbey. It's a special place right at the top and you have a great view of the sea
That sounds great. Are there things to eat there?
Yes we ate the Mère Poular omelet It's very famous. It was cooked over a wood fire.It was really good. And we also ate Pré Salé lamb a special lamb from the region It was delicious
Yes it was great. Plus there is a sand barrier around Mont Saint-Michel to protect the island
Yes the sea sand sometimes fills the island so they built this barrier to prevent that but it will still take several years to remove all the sand
It's really interesting It makes you want to visit
Yes it's a place you absolutely have to see You should go there one day
