... brick town inside a wall built in 1808, i took loads of photos but can not put them on the internet yet. we had lunch/dinner again and walked the 3km back to the hostel. I was busting to go to the loo but there is a distinct lack of public facilities so i had to go to a pub were they followed me to the toilet to make sure i didnt leave without buying a drink. When we retuirned to the Hostel they ...

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...

... la chance de gouter à des moules pour la première fois de ma vie! Ce n’était pas si mal, je ne sais pas si je suis encore prête à en commander toute seule mais bon, c'est un début. Par contre, je crois que les huitres sont la vraie spécialité du Mont-St-Michel, mais encore là, c’est un fait à vérifier!
Les trippes ca c'est une autre histoire...je n’ai pas r ...

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 ...

... 19th century viaduct spanning high above the port. It was beer o'clock so we found the old towns bar street and settled ourselves down on one of the outside tables. We tried two local beers a Picon and Affligate. Picon a dark beer but tasting like it contained lemonade (hmmm not sure about that one) and Affligate which was like a blonde Leffe - this was a good choice ...

... s prices right now! Kim's Maison du Scooby came through with the goods again and produced a delicious Mussels Provincal and Oysters Kilpatrick for lunch. View was amazing as we parked at Pointe de Grouin and the blue waters of the Altantic shone in the background. The scenery around the Pointe reminded us a lot of Cornwall.

Taking the direct route for a change we drove onto Le Mont Saint Michel where had decided to stay for the night. We arrived just before sunset and secured a park at the start of the causeway in direct view of the Mont. I went out to take some photos in the last of the light while Kim prepared some nibbles and popped open a bottle of rose. Together we watched the sun go down and was rewarded by a be pretty red/pink sunset.
After dinner we went for a walk ...

... br>I had an all access pass. So I could go back stage, anywhere I wanted. It was weird because I would be talking to people and then an hour later I would look at the big screen and they would be playing.

The festival was probably better than expected because I was drunk most of the time. You can be into anything when your drunk. It wasn't really a rock festival I thought. It went from slow pop sort of stuff to weird French trance music at night.

So Adam and I meet up with Cecile and Maelle in Mt. St. Michel and stayed at Maelle's parents' house. Her parents actually run a hotel/bed&breakfast next to their cow and pig farm. I got to see some cows being milked, so that was interesting... You only need to spend a half day and a night at Mt. St. Michel, but it's a really incredible place. I've been to some pretty amazing places and this is near the top ...
