Bay of Somme


Hi everyone,

Here are a few pictures Jake and I took this week-end in the Bay of Somme - 150 miles north of Paris on the English channel. We rented bikes to go all along the coast of the estuary. This national park is a natural reserve with a high diversity of birds. We visited the Marquenterre park where birdwatching is made possible thanks to observation decks with binoculars. We also went to the Bay Birds Museum that has a nice collection of stuffed local birds among the 330 different species in the region.

Remember that you are all welcome here in France and that we can have 2 guests in our new apartment in Paris.
