Personally, I think the French living in Normandy are the nicest, and most hospitable people in France, especially to Americans. That area is beautiful and daunting and very humbling. I was fortunate to visit there several times in the 80s.
the people were great JR...I feel blessed to have seen the area...I've started reading Stephen Ambrose's Citizen Soldiers..then will read them all....best part of the trip...
