Deauville
Dean stands in front of the home of our friends Eric and Sabine in Deauville. It is across the road from the beach.

Jeff drives through the streets of Honfleur. It's almost as nerve-racking as the Burren!

Eric and Sixtine take us on a tour of Honfleur's marina. We get caught in a downpour minutes from now.
