Beautiful! Thank you so much - I too recognize many of the places from our travels. I especially like the Normandy and Loire Valley parts.

Great video mimi, thanks for sharing. I could see Clos Vougeot (3.30min) and la Bussière Abbey (4thmin). Chenonceau looks great on the Cher river. Very nice!

Are those long stretches of beach Normandy? The monument?
It would be great if someone could give a list of the places in order of appearance! Thanks for posting this and naming some of them cigal & coco. The French Alps took my breath away!

AGM the stones you can see after Mont Saint Michel are cliffs of Etretat. Another view here

Calanques are only on the Mediterranean sea (the word comes from Provence and Corsica)
Here is a nice one near Cassis http://www.licencephoto.com/mini_pho...cky_Shores.jpg

Merci, Coco. Mont St Michel is on our list but I am debating whether to wait until they finish the dam and the rehabilitation of the area before we go.
