France, Day 5: If you Build it . . .

Mont St. Michel as seen through our bus window

On this day, we traveled from our base in Bayeux to Mont St. Michel. This tiny tidal island, an UNESCO World Heritage Site, is home to the majestic St. Michel Monastery. As we drove through the Normandy countryside, I was struck by how it reminded me of the rich, pastoral borderlands of Scotland.

Due to the volume of tourists, everyone must take a c

“...Don't you ever get the feeling that for all that people try to be so civilized and sophisticated, we're really just animals pretending to be human?”
Marie Zhuikov, Eye of the Wolf

“Her cousins laughed, daring the next wave to wash over before they passed. While they ran, a huge swell rolled along the side of the pier, fat fingers reaching up just in time to pluck them from the pier and win the macabre game of tag. Melora watched, helpless, hardly realizing the gravity of what was happening. It had all been a game. Her cousins were so good at games.”
Marie Zhuikov, Eye of the Wolf

“The professor is stumped about why the decline is happening with the wolves and what, if anything, we can do to help them. You see, the problem is we've let nature take its course here. We observe but don't interfere. Kind of like the Prime Directive in Star Trek.”
Marie Zhuikov, Eye of the Wolf

“‎Life is a shipwreck, but we must not forget to sing in the lifeboats.”
Voltaire

“It was one of those humid days when the atmosphere gets confused. Sitting on the porch, you could feel it: the air wishing it was water.”
Jeffrey Eugenides, Middlesex

“I can shake off everything as I write; my sorrows disappear, my courage is reborn.”
Anne Frank

“Hope was a luxury Melora could barely allow. It was more painful than sorrow, more hurtful than disappointment because it represented a potential: the potential for happiness. If only her happiness didn’t depend so much on other people, she’d be fine.”
Marie Zhuikov, Plover Landing

“It had been years since Melora listened to a symphony. She had been struck by how natural and organic the music was. She found herself thinking about how the instruments were all human powered—not one electrical impulse among them. Maybe that was why it was so easy to get transported by the music—to find oneself thinking about vast outdoor landscapes when the music played.”
Marie Zhuikov, Plover Landing
