The BBC reports that the French will turn Mont Saint-Michel back into an island. In the past the abbey was more than four kilometers from the coast; nowadays it’s only a few meters. The work is scheduled to be complete in 2012.
Mont Saint-Michel is pretty cool, I presume I was one of the first people ever to check their email wirelessly on the top of the abbey back in 2000 with my mobile phone and my Palm Pilot.
Just don’t go there with a stressed-out girlfriend. ;)

The girlfriend I was at Mt Saint-Michel with definitely had PMS that weekend. Or some other problem. Nuff said.
