When I was 12 years old I had a 2 week trip to France with my high school.  We visited Rouen and Normandy.  Unfortunately I have none of the photo's I took on that trip, I have a feeling they all got left behind in England when we emigrated.  That is one of the reasons I would love to visit Normandy and Mont Saint Michel again, to see if it really was as steep a hill to walk up as a 12 year old saw it.  There are 3 links on this page as well as the link from the photo.  They include info on Mt St Michel and more photo's of Rouen and the Mount.
