TIDES

The tides in the area change quickly, and have been described by Victor Hugo as “à la vitesse d’un cheval au galop” or “as swiftly as a galloping horse”.
The tides can vary greatly, at roughly 14 metres between high and low water marks. Popularly nicknamed “St. Michael in peril of the sea” by medieval pilgrims making their way across the flats, the mount can still pose dangers for visitors who avoid the causeway and attempt the hazardous walk across the sands from the neighbouring coast.
Polderisation and occasional flooding created salt marsh meadows that were found to be ideally suited to grazing sheep. The well-flavoured meat that results from the diet of the sheep in the pré salé (salt meadow) makes agneau de pré-salé (salt meadow lamb), a local specialty that may be found on the menus of restaurants that depend on income from the many visitors to the mount.

Pastel, le Mont Saint Michel

artcoiris — Wed, 24 Jun 2009 17:45:47 +0000

Pastel is an art medium in the form of a stick, consisting of pure powdered pigment and a binder. The pigments used in pastels are the same as those used to produce all colored art media, including oil paints; the binder is of a neutral hue and low saturation.

Le mont Saint Michel, deuxième site touristique le plus fréquenté de France, est un îlot rocheux sur la côte normande où s’élève l’abbaye du mont Saint Michel. Le premier sanctuaire a été construit en l’honneur de l’archange Saint Michel à partir de 709, suivi par le monastère et l’église pendant le 11ème siècle.

Le Mont-Saint-Michel (English: Saint Michael’s Mount) is a rocky tidal island and a commune in Normandy, France. It is located approximately one kilometre off the country’s north coast, at the mouth of the Couesnon River near Avranches.
