Some places are so familiar from travel images that you are surprised when you actually visit them. The Abbaye du Mont Saint-Michel, France is one of those places. What they do not show you in the travel images is the huge mob of people visiting the Abby. We literally got stuck in a traffic jam of people for about twenty minutes or so and could not move more than a few feet. The narrow and steep streets were packed with people and the only way to stop or get out of the stream was to step into a store or shop. Otherwise, the whole visit was spectacular.
