These are some pix from a day trip from Jersey.
St Malo was almost entirely destroyed during WW2 and was rebuilt afterwards.
I spent rather too much time sampling the cider and the sea food (both wonderful!),
so missed out quite a few of the sights, including the statue of Jacques Cartier,
who claimed Canada for France in 1534
