We left the hotel at five thirty to take the metro to Montparnasse, where we caught the country train to St Malo. The trip took about three hours it was very pleasant as we travelled first class. Thanks to infinity rail for your stuff up, for those who dont know even though we payed for 2nd class tikets we are booked into 1st class on all of our train journeys. We decided to get a cab to our ...

Arret d'une heure à St-Malo.

Cinq minutes après s'être stationné...il commence à pleuvoir. Mais jusqu'à là, ca allait.
Apres un certain temps, je réalise qu'il a un Énorme nuage d'une couleur douteuse qui approche un peu trop rapidement. 30 secondes apres avoir fait le commentaire, gros tonnerre et ca commence à tomber et même à grêler....

Fait du séjour à St-Malo...

On a passé une bonne partie de la journée à se promener dans le Mont-St-Michel. C'est vraiment spécial comme endroit, isolé du monde, mini village au milieu de…et bien rien! La marée était basse lorsqu'on est allé mais il parait qu'elle peut monter aussi rapidement que le galop d'un cheval. Je me demande si c'est vrai :s Il faudrait bien que je vérifie!

J'ai même ...

I went just one day to Rennes. I thought it was really pretty since all of the houses are made of
rough stones, des maisons bretonnes typiques. Aussi, les maisons sont faites
toutes un peu croches, ca donne un petit style que j'aimais bien.



Et oui effectivement, il fait beau plusieurs fois par jour. It does rain a LOT.
There is mainly what is in every french city, bars, restaurants and shoe shops!

Sunday we drove 2 hours to Bretagne (or Brittany) to Mont St. Michel. There is an abbey on top which began construction in the 700s. It's very old and medieval. There were a ton of steps we had to climb up, but once we got to the top, it was well worth it. The views were picturesque ...

Famed as one of the best preserved medieval towns in France or so says the Lonely Planet, the old town seemed like it had been swallowed by the new. We had our first crepe and enjoyed it as we wandered through the old cobbled stone streets which became more and more rewarding. We stumbled upon the local young un's hang out which was the city walls. The views looked down onto ...

... My car broke down and.... I ... I just need to use the phone." but I was certain that doing so would conjure up a group of identically dressed white haired children who would walk slowly towards me, smiling, and chanting "La la ... la la la .... La la ... la la la". In a town like this perfectly tended flowers become scary "there must be someone here ... who trims the flowers?" (Answer: The undead) I think now is as good a ...

... forever lost in that mysterious world. We headed out west to Brittany today, roughly 150 km from where we're located in Caen. It was so liberating being able to go somewhere. Caen is a nice town, but I really feel like I'm in the middle of nowhere, so it was great experiencing a few other towns. We stopped in Cancale for lunch where Tanner and Karen had "les huitres" because the town is known as having the best oysters in all of France. Christie and I went ...

... how to pay! As I mentioned before it was market day and the place was teaming with shoppers most carrying straw baskets. There was a row of stalls with people selling food - veggies, plants, meat, cheese, live chickens even! Darin had a galette with saucisse - different. The rest of the stalls were flea market type junk so we didn't really bother walking through those. Stopped at the tourist office for a map and walked around some more. Dinan ...
