So Fri went back to the pub we went to last time near eddies house, watched a great band, then i entertained the french and english couple with some beatles and oasis and so ...
Evran, Brittany, France ashstmartin... enjoying the sunny afternoon and the canal was full of families and friends walking and cycling. One old man was cycling on his archaic bike all by himself. It’s frame wobbling a bit at the slow speed he was pedaling. Full suit on topped with a little barret. So perfect I wished that I could take a photo, but no such luck. <br><br>It’s interesting how people are the same wherever you go. If only people would realize this and stop ...
Rieux, Brittany, France 2totango... So did a couple of French guys who had lived in Oz for a while and like to pull out Aussie slang words and put them in sentences which made no sense. It was good to relate to the Aussie chick as she had been having the same experience as me of not knowing what was going on until it actually happened. It was good just to speak at a normal speed and talk how you normally talk back home. I have to take out all “me Aussie speakin ...
Vannes, Brittany, France bharden... es la razón de que aparezcamos tan cubiertos de ropa. La costa salvaje se forma en el lado "descubierto" de una pequeña península de unos pocos kms de ancho y 14 km de largo. Durante estos 14 km se pueden encontrar acantilados preciosos, playas salvajes (pero salvajes, de verdad. De las que no te puedes bañar) y largos paseos sobre la hierba segada por el viento y adornados con gaviotas planeando por los "abruptos y flamantes picados" (como Juan Gaviota... aj aj aj... ja ja ja).
Carnac, Brittany, France iba-jeeEncore une journée ensoleillée qui s'annonce. Aujourd'hui nous allons faire un tour sur la presqu'île de Quiberon avant de mettre le cap sur l'île aux moines. En chemin vers Quiberon, nous faisons une courte halte pour contempler un dolmen. Eh oui, des menhirs on en a vu des champs entiers mais encore aucun dolmen. Ca vaut le détour ne serait-ce que pour jauger l'ingéniosité des loustics qui, il y a plus de 5000 ans ont réussi à déposer un énorme rocher ...
île au moines, Brittany, France lfichter... conservé. Après avoir déjeuné dans une crèperie où trônait, perdu au milieu de la décoration "typiquement bretonne", un tableau de la "famille Gayant" (oui, bon la patronne était du Nord), nous avons déambul dans les ruelles étroites et pavées qui mènent à la cathédrale Saint-Pierre puis aux remparts de la ville. Le tout est superbement rénové et mis en valeur et les maisons en encorbellement rappellent imanquablement le moyen-âge. Le centre ...
Vannes, Brittany, France lfichter... n'a pas toujours été une terre chrétienne (non, sans blague ?). Le nom de la rue de l'hotel nous le rappelle assez : avenue des druides... Ah oui, c'est vrai, avant le roi Arthur il y a eu Astérix :))) Quoi qu'ilen soit, Carnac semble bien éteinte en cette saison, en tout cas c'est l'impression que cela donne un mardi soir à 19h00 hors saison puisque pour le diner le choix semble se restreindre... au restaurant de l'hotel...
Carnac, Brittany, France lfichterHome at last, home at last. Sorry we haven't kept the blog up to date at the end but the travelling towards the end proved to be too tiring and jet lag lasted for five days after our return. Good to see the girls again. Will show more photos soon. Joanne and Paul
Ruffiac, France marmotstew... having to be bent over in a manner that would only really be socially acceptable in prison showers. We found a road sign to Bordeaux and started the journey. The first hour or so was fine - we sang our way quite happily through American Pie, I Love You Baby and You've Lost That Loving Feeling. By about eight o'clock, we had found our way onto the motorway. There was no pavement. By nine o'clock it was starting to get dark. We stopped off at a service station and went to McDonalds ...
