Saint Malo, the fort city

This town was built within a fort! Tiny streets, impressive buildings and you can walk all the way around the fort walls

Trouville, between Deauville and Honfleur

This town has a huge fish market, this is where we purchased my first taste of Soup de Poisson (fish soup)

I still prefer crepes and croissants lol

The town of Honfleur

I got my very first red beret, and we had lunch in a little port, Crepes and Galletes :-P

From the eiffel tower

I'm here, overlooking the Seine!
