White cliffs, calm beach and partying French

Goodmorning Etretat! On our travel towards Cherbourg, we made a stopover in Etretat to have breakfast on the famous beach near the white cliffs. The sun just roose, when we took a small nap in Yport, but here we sat down to eat something after 750 km driving through the night. Ilja and Irina slept good, and now we could enjoy together this special place, where the white cliffs have taken a wonderful form. On the beach, some people that obviously partied the whole night, were drinking coffee and/or beer. France just entered the quarter finales of the World Championships Football (soccer).

An elephant drinking at sea

The white cliffs of Etretat are espacially famous because of the natural bridge that the sea has sculpted out of the land. Many see a white elephant, that sticks his trunk into the sea to drink (obviously those who thought that out, forgot that seawater is salt and an elephant would definately NOT drink here - hahaha). Etretat itself is a very touristic littel place, that offers tourist many entertainment, but above all ... a great time at sea.
