Bonjour Aurel,

Don't worry about your English, guys on this forum are very sharps and some of them understand French. AHHH! Ste-Mère Église, it's always a pleasure to be there on June 5 and 6 at the major ceremonies of the D-Day. My HMV friends and I also love Ste-Marie-du-Mont and the area around the beaches of Utah.
