much longer than normal.<\/p>\n<p>So after Beaumont-en-auge we went to the lovely town of Honfleur. We all thought Honfluer would a name linked to flowers, but it is actually angled of the river.<\/p>\n<p>This was a free time stop we could shop and \u00a0have lunch etc.<\/p>\n<p>We checked out lots of cafes and finally chose one \u2013 but not the right one. I had enjoyed the sole so much a few days ago, I chose it again, This time 2 our of 10. Paul also chose Fish soup again \u2013 also 2 out of 10. What a disappointment after our previous experience.<\/p>\n<p>However I did try the cider as this is a famous cider area, and the sweet cider was delicious!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_268\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-268\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-268\" src=\"http:\/\/perrisinfo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cider-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/perrisinfo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cider-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/perrisinfo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cider-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/perrisinfo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cider-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/perrisinfo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cider-220x124.jpg 220w, https:\/\/perrisinfo.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/07\/cider.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-268\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cider<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>We just spent our time wandering and I was hoping to get a few souvenirs but nothing grabbed me.
