Tony,

Great pictures.

I particularly like the photos of Honfleur Harbour, they remind me when I sailed to Honfleur in July 1990 on a Westerly Ocean Ranger.
The harbour was so full and overcrowded with people and boats we were rafted up about 8 to 10 boats deep.
It was July 14th and Bastille Day celebrations with loads of Calvados flowing and fire crackers going off.

Honfleur has not changed at all, I recall there was loads of people and a harbour full yachts

Excellent memories and thanks again for the great pictures.

now thats an adventure sailing to it souds great rd

Great pics, however our trip is off. We were going to bring 3 helicopters there, but the advent of new euro rules mean we won't be able to do it in the way we wanted. Bugger!

At least I get to see what I'm missing!

what ? with rockets firing and mini guns blazing
