First thing i went to the office to check in formally which the owner had we requested when we arrived only they were not there when I went up the previous evening.
She said I must get all your details and so I duly arrived with my passport, credit card, Caravan card and ready for anything. She said after waiting for the computer to start, she said can I have your name which I could just remember, and she said thanks. Anything else do you want ? and she said Non! What about how long we are staying, its up to you she saidm and that was the check in procedure.
We had arranged to meet Mady and Ken in the lovely seaside town of Vannes and as Mady had warned us about parking places we had a rough idea where to go and it worked well.
As an aside this is a very busy twon with an increasing amount of tourists who wanted to spend money here but could not as there was not space for parking. So they build a huge 480 vehicle underground car park and to the sound of background music you can park for a very modest fee, Elmbridge please take note.
We hada coffee then wandered through the open air market and around the old fortified town and then on to lunch overlooking the harbour with an excellent salad and a glass of pink (rose) wine, brilliant.
We then drove down the coast stopping here and there at nice little bays and then on to the Isle aux Moines in the Gulf of Morbihan which you had to reach by ferry. The ferry service sort of operates every fifteen minutes but then this is France and so it was perhaps not quite to schedule but the journey take only ten minutes. Quite a few people reside on the Island and have to use the ferry each day and there are no private cars allowed but you can have a motor cycle or bike.
We had a quick drink in the cafe in the square in the now very warm weather and then back down for an ice cream before boarding the ferry back to Mady & Ken’s place.
They have achieved quite a bit since our last visit and so we had a good look round and then prepared ourselves for a nice BBQ sitting outside in the garden overlooking the fields. What a great way to ends the day and so then we left for the twenty five minute journey home.
