Em had a great idea while I was away. We were both hankering for a view and taste of the ocean, so a trip to Honfleur and Etretat was put onto the menu. We headed down to Dourdan to borrow the car...again...and headed off on Saturday morning.
Honfleur was the first stop. The outlet of the Seine, it's no Port Waikato! There's a beautiful little harbour and lots of cute restaurants and shops to enjoy, even with all the tourists there. The day was hot and clear as we walked around to get a view onto the water and the cite of Le Harve.
After a night spent in a very forgetable hotel we headed to the coast and up to Etretat. Pretty much the French equivalent of Dover the limestone cliffs are spectacular and the village is friendly and cute. We wandered around the cliffs to get a view back onto the main beach, then down to take a brief (and very brief it was too!) dip in the water.
