The beach, just a short walk from our doorstep, consists of a few yards of pretty smooth pebbles leading to a wide expanse of sand, especially at low tide. It is packed and very easy to walk on. In this picture you can see Le Fort Vauville behind me, built during the Seven Year War (1756-1763). You can see an even better picture of the structure, and a nearby gun turret used during the war, on Google Earth.
Between the beach and the fields behind the houses of Vauville, there is a picturesque hiking trail from which you can see the town, the fields, the farm animals, and the beach, all from the same spot. The Cap La Hague is known for its hiking trails and beautiful views.
The Norman cows (typified by their distinctive patches of color over their eyes) are curious types, but not extremely friendly (yet). Daniel enjoys playing with both the cows and the sea life on the beach. :)

Darren wanted to see pictures of Aunt Cindy and Uncle Daniel - - he has a very keen eye. As I was closing the picture of Daniel on the beach, Darren said, "That's a ball!" I hadn't even seen it. Guess you guys will have to toss the ball around when we visit. :-) - Lori S
