Honfleur, France

T
Honfleur lies on the south side of the Seine estuary. Le Havre lies on the north side. Standing sentry, like this light tower, they guard the gateway to Normandy and the waterway to Paris. Honfleur's history goes back a thousand years; Le Havre's five hundred. Yet, Le Havre has won the battle of the ports. I wonder why. [2005]
