Russ & Barb’s Travels
Saint Malo
After two days cruising through the English Channel we arrived in Saint Malo, France. Some of the group made an excursion to the iconic Mont Saint-Michel. Having visited there before, we opted to explore the city.
This area is known for its tide levels and speed with which the tide goes in and out, which is one reason Mont Saint-Michel is so famous. While here we got to see how significant the tide can be.
