Montreuil

So having got to France we wanted to maximise the time we had away from WillandKateLand.

Montreuil pas-de Calais or Monteuil-ser-Mer is a pretty medieval walled town sitting on a hillside looking down on the river Canche.  It is somewhat inland from the sea, and has 17th century ramparts by Vauban. We wandered around, ate food in a small restaurant while a thunderstorm happened outside, and generally enjoyed ourselves...

Possibly the only drawback was the discovery that a 'Welch' (selected by younger teenager) was not quite cheese-on-toast, but rather a bowl of molten cheddary substance with some bread in it.  Sort of thick cheese soup.  Quite horrid.
On the other hand, the countryside around Saint-Josse, where we were staying, was warm and wonderful.  This site being what it is, here is a local tree.
