Pixie Toadstool Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 At Saint Michel-de-Montjoie on Saturday 29th December there are fireworks and a general jamboree Normandie style (i.e. mulled wine etc., for sale plus grillades and sausage frites). It normally attracts quite a few people - so you may need to walk half a mile up the hill into the village (just telling you in case you can't walk that far).Anyhow, usually the fireworks are very good and they're set to classical music too. I am not sure what time it starts but if you get there early you can always go and have a drink or something to eat at one of the stands. One year they opened up a village house as a mulled wine emporium - very effective as they were heating the wine in a cauldon over a fire in the enormous granite fireplace. I don't know if they will be doing that this year though.If anyone knows of anything else going on please post!PixX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
