Land of Wayne's Ancestors
Nicolas Quentin emigrated from Gonneville-sur-Honfleur in 1652 and was one of the first colonists (premier colons) of L'Ange-Gardien in Quebec, Canada. He's famous! His name is on a monument in L'Ange-Gardien. Never been there, but we're heading to Normandy to see the town he came from.

We've been without internet on my computer for several days now, so I've got a bit of catching up to do. We went to Honfleur, Gonneville-sur-Honfleur, and have arrived in Bayeux - all in Normandy. We've seen a lot in a few days and have taken several hundred photos. I'm only going to post a few, but I hope this gives you a taste of what we've seen and done.
