13th - 14th Mont Saint Michel

Day 1 Second long drive day but we have now reached the top end of France for our stop tonight at a camper aire very near to Mont Saint Michel. Tomorrow we plan to make a visit.

Day 2 We locked up Buster and set off for the free shuttle bus service that drops you off very near the Mont, other wise it's a 30 - 40 minute walk. Amazingly entry is also free. We are parked in the camping car section of the car park, there are no services but with a little help from solar we managed ok. From here it's a short walk to the shuttle bus service. There is a camping car park with the usual service but it's a bike ride away.

There are plenty of gift shops and places to buy food but be prepared to pay well over the odds. You can walk around wherever you please and for as long as you like, there are only a few places that are closed off. Once near the top you will find the abbey. That section is not free, it's 13 euros for entry and I think it's well worth it. We headed back to Buster for a break then grabbed the bikes and headed back for more.

What a place, we are so glad we made the two long runs up from Spain so we could be here with enough time to visit for a full day without any rush. We will stop here tonight and head off in the morning to a spot close to the ferry terminal.
