Bayeux

We spent three nights in the town of Bayeux in Normandy, It was one of two towns in Normandy that wasn't bombed during WW2 even though it was occupied by the Germans. It was one of the first towns to be liberated after the D-Day Landings. It is a lovely medieval town, with a lovely cathedral. We went and saw the famous Bayeux Tapestry- which according to Amy should be called an embroidery!

The original homes were half stone and half wood
