		We are in Barfleur, a little village of granite houses on a narrow spit of land.

	Barfleur
		Barfleur arriving at Cherbourg again, this time in August 1999 by which time she was painted in Brittany Ferries colours.
		She's a comfortable, well equipped vessel, and I've enjoyed many crossings on her, be it for a day trip - out one night, back the next - or at the beginning or end of a holiday with the caravan or staying in a gîte.
		Next are two views of the Barfleur while she was berthed at Cherbourg in August 2000, she had been moved off the linkspan and was receiving some attention.

	Barfleur Tourist Information and Travel Guide at InfoHub.com
		The pleasant little harbour village of BARFLEUR, 25km east of Cherbourg, was the biggest port in Normandy seven centuries ago.
		The population has since dwindled from nine thousand to six hundred, and fortunes have diminished alongside - most recently through the invasion of a strain of plankton that poisoned all the mussels.
		Le Moderne is tucked away south of the main road at 1 place de Gaulle (tel 02.33.23.12.44; 160-220F/?24-34; closed mid-Sept to mid-March); some of the rooms are very inexpensive, while the restaurant is superb, with the 144F/?21.95 menu featuring a fish-shaped feuilleton (pastry) of seafood - the house speciality is oysters, stuffed or raw.

	Internet Archive: Details: Barfleur
		This video is based on 'Barfleur', a song made by the French band Tanger.
		Footage had been taken on the very place that the lyrics are about: a small harbour in Normandy.
		The winter light makes probably most of the work (the same movie, shot in Summer, would not be as good); footage had been smartly edited to support a original screenplay that goes beyond the lyrics.
