Caen is a good base, a city so devastated by the battles between occupiers and liberators that only 25 per cent of its buildings antedate the year. Today Caen is a contemporary commercial center, its generally low skyline punctuated by the graceful soaring forms of the two llth century abbeys built by William the Conqueror and his queen Mathilde — the complemen- tary Abbaye aux Hommes and Abbaye aux Dames — and the Eglise St. Pierre, around which the flower sellers gather each day. On Sunday, a flea market stret- ches away from St. Pierre, a fascinating jumble of old and new wares, from battered pewter spoons and used LPs to new sweaters and cookware. A farewell to Caen involves a stroll through this market. On the other hand, arrival in Bayeux is marked by the lowing of cows and the spirited calling of auctioneers at the cattle auction adjoining the Saturday market. At the market, you will find a melange of foodstuffs, flowers and housewares, a mundane miscellany that provides another insight into the pattern of French — and Norman — life. Bayeux is an exquisite jewel of a city which miraculously emerged nearly untouched from the waves of violence which destroyed so much else in Normandy. Chief among Bayeux’s pleasures is simply strolling through its nar- row streets, admiring its austere stone architecture and the at- tenuated half-timbering charac- teristic of the region.
