Normandy: La Pointe du Hoc

After a picnic lunch at a boule yard with a picnic table, we went to La Pointe du Hoc.

The site has changed a lot since we were last there in 2003. Now it has parking lots and bathrooms, which are a nice improvement.

It also has paths to walk on, with the rest of the grounds cordoned off. We're not sure if that's an "improvement" that happened at some point in the intervening years, or whether it was to keep people from damaging the site, or both, but it changes the entire visit. When we went in 2003, you could go down into the craters - not anymore.
