I enjoyed very much this excursion in the Channel Islands: beautiful landscapes and nice encounters.
There are some interesting aspects of these islands : the particularities of these islands (the Queen Elizabeth considered as the Duke of Normandy, the Norman or French language in the islands, the "centenier" or volunteeer policeman Hugh Gill), the Jersey cattle breed ( the children Emily and Lyndon Huelin and the livestock cometition, the cattle farmers Darren and Julia Quenault, the high productivity of the Jersey cows, the bronze statues of the Jersey cattle at Saint-Hélier), the gardens of of Jersey (the entrepreneur Martin Bourk and the new gardens on the island, the Portuguese immigrants as gardener), the Jersey island at low tide ( the abalone fisher Tony Leggs, the oyster farmer Chris Le Masurier, the guide Chantal Juan and the Seymour tower), the German occupation of Guernsey (the female guide Gill Girard, the fortifications,the passive resistance, Richard Heaume and the museum of the occupation) and the island of Sark ( the ferry twice a week from Guernsey, the mailman Simon Adams, the volunteer policeman Matt Joyne and the little prison of Sark with two cells, the "Seigneur of Sark" as main authority on the island, the "sénéchal" Reg Guille and the new laws in the island).
I enjoyed the encounters of Sophie Jovillard with the boat captain Bob Escoffier at Saint-Malo, with the volunteer policeman and guide Hugh, with the manager of the Samares Richard Adams, with Lea -the tea time and the visit of the garden-, with the sand castle builder Symon Smith, with the zookeeper Gerardo Garcia and the zookeeper Tim Wright at Durrell Wildlife Park, with Geoffroy Mahy and Stéphanie Duluc and the female painter Elizabeth Adams and Olive Sarre at Guernsey, with the fisherman Jonathan Shuker , with the horse carriage driver, with the chef David Moon and the Seigneur of Sark John Michael Beaumont: nice encounters with very kind men and women.
