Getting from Bayeux to CDG

I have a flight leaving from Charles De Gaulle at 2:15pm and I am coming from Bayeux in the morning. I think I can catch at train from Bayeux that will get me into Paris but not sure of the route from Paris. Can you help?

I recommend that you take the train leaving Bayeux at 07:21 (one change in Caen) which will get you to Gare St-Lazare at 10:03. Take the RER E from Haussmann St-Lazare to Magenta. Take the short connecting walkway to Gare du Nord and take the RER B to CDG. The B line splits after you get outside of Paris so be sure you take a train that goes to CDG. Buy your ticket to CDG at Haussmann St-Lazare (E8.00). The average time for the trip is 50 minutes. You can get off at either of two stops: CDG 1 or CDG 2 TGV. If you're leaving from Terminal 1, you'll need to take the free shuttle bus from the RER station to the terminal.

The RER route is not as complicated as it might sound. And if you're traveling light, it's not difficult to schlep your luggage. Go to www.ratp.fr to download and print a metro/RER map. The site is viewable in English.

At 10:03 she has 2 hours to get to CDG--I would make it as UNcomplicated as possible--finding the right terminal, shuttle bus, etc. And I have taken the RER to CDG.
