Thank you for your content on this video. After discovering my family tree, my family were Dukes of Normandy and most all were married there. It's just amazing that it still stands today 1000 years later.

Hodge Hill Girls School. BIRMINGHAM. UK. “Mont San Michel”.
I once visited this beautiful place, having never heard of it. I found myself at this incredible location due to a series of events that took place during the month of June, 1983.
A friend and I had recently celebrated our 18th birthdays, and we booked a camping holiday near to the French, Brittany town of Cancale.
The day of departure from BIRMINGHAM coach station, saw us aboard a double decker coach. We sat aloft. On the journey out of the city, a housing estate captured my interest. The estate lay to the right of the motorway, I saw a working man´s club, petrol station, small shopping precinct and a large secondary school perched on the hill overlooking the estate. I also noticed particular homes and their neat front gardens.
We arrived at the camp site, located on the outskirts of Cancale. We soon discover that there was a group of school girls on an end of term cultural trip, also at the camp site. They told us they were from Hodge Hill Girls School, Hodge Hill, BIRMINGHAM. They had arrived in two mini vans, so I guess there may have been approximately 20 in their party.
The girls were aged 15 and 16. Instincts kicked in, and so did the only game in town.
My friend and I somehow got invited by the teachers, to accompany them all on a day trip. We must have appeared to be reasonably safe and respectable. We travelled at the very rear of one of the decrepit mini buses in a couple of spare seats. We had no idea at this point where we were heading. We supplied the teachers with Tape Cassettes, and were soon travelling through French country side listening music of the band of the day “Japan”.
We eventually arrived at Mont San Michel, and we began our pilgrimage against gravity. We slowly meandered up through the cobbled streets, taking in nearly all of the gift shops, until we eventually arrived at the summit, in the company of our new friends. Lunch time came around, and we all ate in the grounds immediate to the Abbey. The views was spectacular. The company was very lovely and 1983 school girl esc.
I can still visualize where we sat to eat, and with whom we sat. I sensed that something very synchronistic was taking place.
The holiday ended, and my friend and I returned home. Part two of this story commenced after receiving a phone call, from one of those delightful young ladies. I would later learn that the housing estate that had caught my attention was home to most of the girls and the secondary school on the hill was their school.
Hello there, and glad you liked my video on the Abbey of Mont St Michel and it brought back fond memories for you. Quite the story and experience you had. If you are interested I also have a video on Mont St Michel island village itself including a night walk: czcams.com/video/P5NASyRh_O4/video.html Your wonderful comment is well appreciated and hope you subscribe to see other videos if you enjoy them 😀. Thanks for watching, and have a great day 👍
What a magnificent building, the sheer size and complexity is really something. History narrative is also very well done, getting the context makes the video come alive as you know how and why so many things have been done. Great work Jim.
Glad you liked it, Steve. It was also a favorite of ours. Your wonderful compliment is well appreciated 😀. Thanks for watching, and have a great day 👍
ضخامة البناء كان على حساب رخص الإنسان
عندما انظر لمثل هذه الأبنية الفخمة القديمة أتخيل أحوال العمال ..
I also imagine workers laboring just to survive and receive basic shelter and food at best. Thanks for watching, stay safe and take care 😀👍
NICE short videos.....love it. We decided to visit Honfleur and Saint Michel....we come from Denmark.
Please do share other unfamous medival villages !!!! SUBBED AND LIKED...AND COMMENTED :-)
Welcome and glad you enjoy my channel & style 😀. My wife and I loved our driving trip through France. You need to checkout my Dinan video - my favorite medieval town besides Mont St Michel. We also loved the Dordogne river valley - I have a playlist of charming hill-towns with stone cottages, including La Roque and Beynac. Take care and enjoy! 👍
What if you get lost there? Are there guides?
Hi there! Great question as it is a big place. There were guided tours available to book, but we just went through on our own. As we went along, they had hallways roped off so we could only go in one direction. We also saw no guides or staff along the way. Just a handful of tourists. We entered the Abbey as soon as it opened in the morning. I image it would be much busier mid-day. So no worry about getting lost. 😀 Take care and enjoy your weekend 👍
Lothric Castle
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching, stay safe and take care 😀👍
Benedict-ine monks. Archangel is pronounced Ark-angel.
Thanks for proper pronunciations. Wish you all the best in the new year 😀.
Ahah yes please....I was thinking the same!!!
Arc do not pronounce H. like church has ch sound. Nice video otherwise thanks
Glad you liked it! And my mispronunciation of archangel has been noted a few times - Lol. I wish there was an easy way to correct it. Your wonderful comment is well appreciated 😀. Thanks for watching, take care and have a great day 👍
