... let us into our room Bronte finished her book, now she will be bored senseless too MWHAHAHAHA.

We caught up with our laundry and then went to bed at 7:00, that is way past brontes usual bed time. i was woken up at 2AM by a group of young people yelling and screaming it sounded like they were playing football above our heads. I thought i had imagined it but Bronte told me she heard it too.

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...

... gouter...Ca pu!!!! J’ai commandé plutôt au restaurant le rôtie de porc et la crème brulée, miam!

En étant en France, tu réalises vraiment comment on censure tout ce qu'on mange en Amérique. Ici, tu as les poules qui sont vendues avec leur tête et leurs pattes, les lapins frais (mort) du jour, les pattes, le nez, le cerveau…tu vois tout tout au marché!

... the abbey there isn’t a whole lot to see at Mont St. Michel, it’s very touristy. We really lucked out with the weather this past weekend, it rained a little when we were walking around, but it definitely poured when we were driving. Someone was watching out for us. 

... round of Affligate please!
Awoke early to freshly brewed coffee and cereal in bed - can't have eggs everyday! Kim convinced me to go for a run later today and not this morning - her reason she was hungry, but I think she was just being lazy :) Not 100% sure what lay ahead today as we had only planned as far as Vitre, which is said to revial Dinan in the mediavel town alure.

Moules, Moules, Moules eveywhere. As we drove towards our next desination the road was littered with stalls of mussels and oysters, infact this region produces 4,000 tonnes of oysters annually...guess what is on the menu for lunch! 1kg mussels and 1/2 dozen oysters for the princely sum of 6 Euro. Can't say we are missing ...

... the village of Mont Saint Michel population 42. The Mont built in 7th century and twined to Mount St Micheal in Cornwall. You would be forgiven for thinking they look very similar from a distance but up close Mont Michel is far grander, although the causeway is cooler in England!!! Having the place nearly completely to ourselves we checked out every nook and cranny and was captivated by its aura. This is how you would imagine castles to be when you ...

... br>I also didn't mind that the accommodation was camping when I got there. I just slept in a friends tent on the ground with “an old coat for a pillow, and the earth was last nights bed” - Bon Jovi – Some French guy called Bert, who I called Bert Newton (no one got that joke but me) gave me his blanket as it got quite cold at night.

Got to go to Saint Malo in the day time and jump of a big diving platform. It was only 5 meters but it ...

... It's almost like something out of a story book with the main castle/cathedral at the top and a village surrounding the bottom. This area has crazy tide changes where there's relatively little water around it in my pictures, but the tide will come in and completely surround the island. The old road leading up to it use to get submerged and unsuspecting tourists would lose their cars. In the village area are ...
