Normandy is divided into Upper Normandy and Lower Normandy, with the former in the department of Seine and the latter in the department of Calvados.

From Paris, it is closer to Rouen, the capital of the Seine, and dozens of kilometers closer than Caen, the capital of the Calvados department.

This group of Chinese students chose to visit Lower Normandy farther away, rather than Upper Normandy, which is closer.

A couple of veterans explained.

Although Paris is very close to Rouen, Rouen is still more than 40 kilometers away from the sea. After the shuttle bus arrived in Rouen, everyone got off the bus, and it was very inconvenient to go to the beach. It is difficult to find a car, and after finding a car, you have to spend money to hire a car.

Caen in Lower Normandy is much more convenient, the city is located by the sea, only a few kilometers from the coastline, everyone get off the bus and walk to the beach.

The shuttle bus took more than 3 hours to reach the city of Caen.

In Chen's opinion, he is more interested in this small-town-like city than Normandy, which is not known for its beautiful scenery.

Caen is small, and the houses are very new, without any ancient buildings, which is very different from what Chen Wen had seen all the way from Paris to Brussels.

A river tens of meters wide crosses Caen from south to north and empties into the sea in the Bay of Seine.

This kind of city with a river running through the city, Chen Wen is his favorite. For nothing else, his three hometowns in the past and present life - Hongcheng, Yangcheng and Shanghai, are all like this, the Ganjiang River, the Pearl River and the Huangpu River flow through the city, Chen Wen is willing to live in such a city.

The five boys greeted each other, and seven women, two men and nine freshmen, including Chen Wen, followed closely, and everyone left Caen Station and walked north along the banks of the Orne River.

Chen Wen came to play with him and could not express his opinion. Seven female students who had just arrived in Paris looked excited, chattering all the way and pointing at the surrounding scenery.

After walking along the Orne River, the five boys turned to another path, saying that the water at the mouth of the river was muddy and that the beach a little further northwest was beautiful.

None of the new international students have ever been here, so they can only listen to the opinions of the old students and follow along.

It was said that it was 5 kilometers, but Chen Wen estimated that he had walked at least 7 kilometers. The 8 new international students are all tired enough, Chen Wen's physical fitness is good, and he doesn't feel tired at all.

At about 1 o'clock in the afternoon, from a gap in the woods, everyone finally saw the beach they were looking forward to.

All seven girls shouted loudly, so excited.

Zhang Wanting took Song Qinyao's hand and said to Chen Wen: "We don't have swimsuits, you can lift up your skirts and take a walk in the sea, I have never seen the sea in my life!"

Chen Wen said: "The Shanghai market is also close to the sea, but you don't."

Have you ever seen the sea on Chongming Island?"

Zhang Wanting shook her head: "I really haven't been there." ”

After a while, the group walked through the woods and came to the beach.

"Ahh

"People here are so shameless!" shouted another girl covering her face.

Chen Wen, Zhang Wanting, and Song Qinyao walked at the back, and they didn't have time to find out about the situation. The three of them walked over to the girls, and Zhang Wanting asked, "What's going on in front of you, has anyone robbed you?"

A red-faced girl said, "There are a lot of people on the beach over there, and they ...... Alas, I'm too embarrassed to say it!"

Another girl said, "None of them are clothed!"

Chen Wen came to his senses as soon as he heard it, it turned out to be the legendary exclusive bathhouse, he had lived for two lifetimes, he had only heard of it, he had not seen it with his own eyes, and he raised his legs and walked forward.

The red-faced girl shouted, "Hey, why do you look like this male classmate, you want to be shameless! There are still women over there!"

Chen Wen thought to himself, everyone is embarrassed not to go swimming in French, what is wrong with Lao Tzu taking a look, is it illegal, hum!

Zhang Wanting and Song Qinyao were also curious, and followed Chen Wen to the beach.

After a short walk, the view of the beach is finally clear.

Good guys, two or three hundred people, sunbathing on the beach, men, women and children, looking at the color of their skin, almost all of them are white.

One thing these people have in common is that most of them are wearing only swimming trunks, no clothes on their upper bodies, and lying on the beach to dry their backs.

Chen Wen was disappointed, it turned out that this was a common sunbathing place for foreigners, and they dried their upper bodies in order to avoid traces of their clothes on their upper bodies.

When Song Qinyao saw the situation on the beach, she immediately covered her face and eyes with her hands just like those girls just like those girls. Zhang Wanting was not shy, and looked at the people basking on the beach generously.

At this time, the five old students came over, and one of them said, "Ladies and gentlemen, in France, there is no need to make a fuss about such a thing. That's the tradition of the French, basking in the sun. That's the case with every beach you go to. Let's have a picnic!"

Chen Wen thought to himself: Let your mother's fart, the coastline of France is so long, there are only a few people in France, and they are not satisfied when they go to the coast, there must not be so many people basking in the sun naked on every beach, you must know what the situation is here, and deliberately bring these new girls to Paris here!

A boy said, "Ladies and gentlemen, let's go on a picnic on the beach, and we won't be able to eat bread on the side of the road, right?"

One girl said, "Those people over there are so shameless, how can we go!"

The boy said, "This is rare and strange for you!"

Another boy said, "Let's go on a picnic on the beach and let them stay in the woods." ”

Another boy said, "You guys, don't run around, we'll be back in two hours, and we won't find you!"

The girl said, "I want to go back to Paris!"

The boy said: "You can go back if you want, go back by yourself, you should know the road at the station, just buy a ticket and take the train." But I'm talking about it here, don't think about the brothers taking you out to play in the future!"

Another boy said, "Don't talk nonsense with her, she likes to go or not, let's go to the beach!"

The five boys walked towards the beach without looking back.

Seven women and two men remained in the woods. The woods are a green separation between the corniche and the beach, with little depth, and staying in the woods for a picnic is tantamount to sitting on the side of the road.

Chen Wen watched from a distance, and the five boys took off their shirts as they walked. Soon, the 5 of them, topless and wearing only shorts, joined the crowd of sunbathers on the beach.

Song Qinyao asked in a low voice, "Wanting, what should I do?"

Zhang Wanting didn't speak, and glanced at Chen Wen.

Chen Wen asked: "Your expression should be that you don't want to go home, you want to go to the beach?"

Zhang Wanting said: "I don't want to bask in the sun, I just want to walk in the sea. ”

Chen Wen said: "Then let's go!"

Chen Wen and Zhang Wanting walked forward, and Song Qinyao followed. Soon, 1 more man and 2 women followed. Only 3 girls refused to go to the beach and stayed under the trees in the green belt.

As soon as they reached the middle of the beach, three white girls stopped the group of six.

The three girls were undressed, and their hands were crossed in front of them, and no one else could see anything they shouldn't see.

A French girl said, "Please stay, this is a sunbathing place, please obey our rules." ”

Zhang Wanting is a bachelor's student, and her French is particularly good, so she asked, "What rules?"

The French girl laughed: "The rule on the beach here is that you can't wear shirts. ”

All four girls' faces turned red.

Zhang Wanting asked, "Excuse me, where can I wear a shirt on the beach?"

The French girl said: "This is the rule in the local beaches in the neighborhood. It's not a beach place, you can play in your tops. ”

Zhang Wanting asked again: "Excuse me, which direction is the nearest place that is not the beach?" ”

The French girl gestured to the southwest: "Over there, but you need to walk a long way, about an hour." ”
