August 1, 2025,Hinter der Küste wird es hügelig-von St.Vaast La Hougue nach Quineville und retour

A wonderful tour with my granddaughter and daughter-in-law...the hills in the hinterland were a challenge for them without their e-bikes, but they mastered it well. In Quineville, we had a delicious lunch at the beachfront brasserie, and we bought fabulously crispy, aromatic biscuits at the local biscuit shop. 😋
