Following an early breakfast, well early for us , we headed off to Vannes but rather than take the fastest way via Motorways etc we decided to take the non motorway route and leave Tom Tom to decide which way we should go. Th reason for this is that by going direct would take just over three hours and we would arrive to early to check in but the route suggested by our sat-nav would take five hours with a better arrival time, and so off we went.
The journey was quite good and of course at slower speeds where you could have time to look around and enjoy the countryside and towns and villages we past thro and a most enjoyable and on time trip except when we arrived in a place called REDON which is about 30 minutes from Vannes we came to a complete stop as the centre of town was having an event, but we don't know what type. However there were Police sending you in the different direction to what the SAT Nav wanted and it cost us about half an hour of messing around to avoid the centre of town and eventually we arrived at the Vannes Kyriad Hotel just after 1715 and met up with my sister and husband.
Time for a brief shower and then down to catch up on all the news ass we had not seen each other for many months and from there we caught a taxi down to the main Vannes old town to a booked restaurant where we enjoyed a very nice meal overlooking all the boats in the harbour.
Did not take photos this time as have been there before and taken photos so enough is enough.
The back to the Hotel which was nice and quiet and were able to have a good chinwag as they say and covered loads of topics form family to health to kids and holidays.
And so to bed which I found a bit soft and spongy, you cannot please them all
