Caudebec-en-Caux, Honfleur and don't I sound French????

We love our trip... but, we are running out of steam.. Fortunately, today we got to take a coach to Honfleur... a great sleepy town almost to the English Channel.  Most of it had been destroyed during the war (I'm beginning to thing most of France was destroyed during the way... If the German's didn't bomb it, the Allies did wanting to make sure there were not any German's!)  Anyway... Honfleur was such a surprise... the little bay oozed French Maritime!  We waddled through the town (that's cuz we feel like we have eaten our way through France!!!!) and found it's main revenue is derived from all the Art Galleries and Cafes.  There are only 8000 in the whole town and if they want to buy groceries, etc... they need to go to the nearest city... 

We got back to our boat and grabbed a bite around 1-ish.  Went exploring in Caudebec-en-Caux, the town we were docked in.  This part of the Seine, we soon saw, has huge tide swings since it is so close to the Channel. Felt just like we do at home with the Tides... Again, our exploring took us off the road most traveled and we found streams with flowers, wishing wells, former jail, another Notre Dame Church... oh, and a cool statue of a woman, with a child on one side, holding a rifle in her skirt on the opposite side.  It was a memorial for all the women who were part of the resistance.... Boy, do we modern have so much we take for granted!

This cruise is a special family cruise and we have about 6 families with kids... ages 6-15.... It's pretty neat.  Tonight, we had Karaoke with an emphasize on the kids... AND, yes, one little girl sang the song from FROZEN... she was darling... Another little guy sang the Lego Movie Theme song... then, staff got involved and it was fun!  A nice end to a great day!
