Le Mont Saint Michel
There are a number of places around the world that leave visitors breathless. Mont Saint Michel is one of them. I really feel fortunate to have visited it while in France.
Mont Saint Michel
"The so called Gothic chancel in the 15th century minster" as described by a brochure I bought at the abbey. For me, this part of the church or abbey is simply the altar.
It sometimes boggles my mind what some of the brochures or pamphlets I get in some tourist places state. To begin with, the English used is so flowery and so vague. No one I know speaks or writes with the vocabulary they use.
