We had such a great time last year in Paris and Provence that we're now hooked on France ! This year thinking of up north. With just a week which would you choose ? Enough time to see both areas ? Merci beaucoup !

I think you could do it either way. There's lots to see in either place, but they are close and you could get a taste of both. You'll probably want a car--pick up in Rouen, drop off in Rennes?.

Having been to both, my choice would be Normandy..Bayeux, Mont St Michel, Honfluer, & the D-Day beaches are hard to beat.
The most impressive site of all may just be the American Cemetery At St Laurent, overlooking Omaha Beach. However, I may be biased, since my Uncle Nick is buried there.

I totally agree with Jim. I'd pick Normandy and really enjoy it. A week goes by very quickly. Normandy is our absolute favorite area in France. We especially love driving the country roads and exploring. It is magical!
