Burg(h)ers of Calais

In our last remaining hours in France - we went to see Rodin's statue The Burghers of Calais. Then we went down to the sea shore to eat the burgers of Calais - real greasy gut bombs - just the kind of thing you want before a potentially rough channel crossing. The Vol-in-Law washed his down with French-brewed tequila flavored beer to prime the load.

Update: The crossing was a bit churny, but there were no ill effects

Gut-bombs also known as "sliders" because nothing stops them on the way to the arteries.
