About
Cornwall, Brittany AND Normandy
September
18th to October 2nd, 2001 with
Joyce James CTC and Kathryn Heuss
Come
join us for a memorable trip through the fabled lands of Cornwall, Brittany
and Normandy.
We will visit the legendary kingdom of King Arthur--from Merlin’s
Cave at Tintagel to Bodmin Moor, where his sword Excalibur was hurled
into the outstretched hand of the Lady of the Lake.
Enjoy the variety of scenery: the surf off the coast of Cornwall and its
sheltered beaches; the gentle rural landscapes of Brittany and Normandy.
Visit the artists’ colonies of St. Ives and Pont Aven; marvel at
the sights of Mont-St-Michel, in Normandy and its counterpart, St. Michael’s
Mount in Cornwall.
This is also a trip into history, encompassing the tin mining in Cornwall,
the Normandy Beaches of the Second World War. We will also visit sites
that inspired the literature of Poldark, Daphne du Maurier’s Jamaica
Inn, and the setting for some of Rosamunde Pilcher’s novels.
Savour the distinctive cuisine of each area; in Cornwall; cream teas and
pasties, staples of the tin miners; Breton seafood and galettes; Calvados
(apple brandy) and special cheeses of Normandy.
You
will take back the memories of the Bayeux Tapestry, the fine lacework
of Brittany, the intricately-carved armoires of Normandy, and Monet’s
gardens at Giverny
