Monet's Home and the old medieval city of Rouen - photos

Sea Princess berthed in LeHavre giving access to Normandy, Paris and Monet's Home and the old medieval town of Rouen. We decided to do a tour to Monet's Home in Giverny followed by a visit to Rouen where Joan of Arc was burnt at the stake by the British in the market place du Viex Marche. It also boasts over 700 medieval old structures- Fantastic place we just love France, we would like to have gone to Normandy but will do that next time. A lot of the following photos are self explanatory just random snaps as we travelled.

  1. I visited these places Easter 2004 so your photos have brought back many happy memories. Also loved the ones of Lisbon. I thought Lisbon was a great city.
