T Stands for the last few days in Normandy

 Hi everyone, we're here again for T Stands For Tuesday where we share drinks over at The Altered Book Lover with Bleubeard and Elizabeth.

My drink was one I had when we visited the area around Camembert. Everyone else had coffee but I wanted a cold drink so I had a lemonade. I hadn't intended buying cake but when I saw my favourite, Tarte Framboise I couldn't resist.

 This was in Vimoutiers another village that produces Camembert cheese

In the square with this beautiful church at the far end.

The cow and statue of Marie Harel who was born in Vimoutiers, she was the woman credited with bringing the recipe for Camembert from a monk she met fleeing from the revolution.

We had a little walk around.

From here we went on to Camembert to the museum which is by the factory

Included in the entry price was a tasting of three different aged Camembert cheeses - we had this at the end of the tour(we had already eaten the  youngest)

There were so many boards full of different Camembert cheese boxes - Isigny is one of my favourites.

It was  a really interesting museum

The next day we moved on to another gîte in Brittany while our friends went back to their home in Poitiers.

On our first day in Brittany we visited Carnac, a beautiful town by the sea.

There was a market in full swing, which we really enjoyed as we had missed out on the one in St Pierre!

There was a little church in the square 

It was beautiful but our real treat was to come after lunch.

That's all for now, we have had a very busy day and need an early night as tomorrow we have to get our car to the garage very early.

Thanks for looking, Chris
