We are about to head out to Normandy for a week-long stay at a chateau and travel throughout the area. Our friend "Jacques" found the place and made all the arrangements and plans. We travel with a group including Jacques and his wife every two years to wonderful locations - staying in great houses (chateaus, manor houses, villas, etc.). I am in the midst of packing which I truthfully find the most difficult part of any travel plan!

I thought it wouldn't hurt to do a little quick research so I would better know what to expect. I have been following a wonderful blog - My French Country Home
Link written from this lovely area of France and saving some of here great photos - see below. I also have a pinterest board called "All Things French" that has captured images and ideas of Normandy
link to my board.
A special day is set aside to do visit the beaches of Normandy involved in "D-Day".
Website devoted to this subject.

From this week in France, we travel to the Amsterdam area of Holland and have a week's worth of excursions planned for that area! I will be posting several "after visit" blogs on this trip! Bon Voyage!
Bon voyage Gerrie, thank you for reading the blog, I'm glad if some of my suggestions have helped you plan your trip
