Never Forget Normandy

One of the amazing things about CEA, is that they organize various day trips, and one overnight trip, that are included! All of theses trips are within France, which is amazing, because you get to experience  places which have a different history and culture than Paris.

I personally know I wouldn’t have made the effort to plan this kind of trip on my own, but with CEA, everything was planned out so that we saw all the best parts of every town we visited. The photos in this post are from the first excursion we went on to Normandy. I’ve gone on all of the excursions since, but this is still my favorite!

We explored two different towns , Honfleur and Deuville, but the photos above are all from Honfleur. This excursion happened one of my first weekends in France, so it was the perfect opportunity to get to know everyone. Some of my first memories with the girls who are now my best friends are in Normandy wandering through the outdoor market. We toured the city, visited the town’s historic church,  and then went on a hike that gave us a beautiful view of Honfleur from above.
 A quintessential view of Honfleur. I love the colors of the buildings with the harbor.

I’ve gone on every excursion CEA has offered, and never once regretted it. So, take advantage of the opportunity to go on guided tours of other special parts of France! Plus, lunch is included. Doesn't my lunch look delicious?
 It looks as good as it tasted! Part of my lunch in Honfleur.
