Mont Saint-Michel

May 10, 2018 by Alexis Bellows

Today we went to Saint-Michel in Normandy France. We learned many history facts about this place. We found out that about eight people are left living on the island. They mostly maintain the grounds. Another interesting fact about the grounds is that “high” tide is really only during a new moon and a full moon. So the water doesn’t get that high until then.
