The village of St Pois is our home until in January.  Although not very big, it has every thing one could need; gas station, grocery store, boulangerie, La Normandie bar and a boucherie.  While the prices at the stores are a bit higher than the large ones in cities, being so close more than makes up for it.  There is also an elementary school and a church.

| Every village in Normandy has a lighted decoration greeting you. | 
Since it is nearing Christmas, there are lights and decorations all over town.  Every window, even on empty buildings, has a holiday theme.  Normandy is known for it's lighted villages. St Pois is doing it's best.
We walked around the village one night before Christmas to take pictures.  It was magical.
