Normandy museums
Anybody know if the museums in Normandy are open throughout December. IIRC Pegasus Bridge is closed, but I may fancy a trip upto Arromanches

The Arromanches Museum is worth it just for the 360 degree film projector alone. Watch out for the despatch rider crossing the bridge in 1944 and ?1998 or thereabouts..very spooky and clever.
