Yeah for Maccas.   Our first visit to one while on holiday.  Free WIFI, that works, clean toilets and here in France hardly any customers.  Now I know why we seldom see a fat french person.  They drink a lot and eat lots of bread ... Read more >

Cold, wet and then finally sunny all in one day.  Even some wind.  No longer the still days and balmy nights we experienced at Gouarec.   Today was the first day, since leaving the gite, that we haven't had to find a bed for the night:... Read more >

Finally back to the coast.  Lots of pretty houses, and rocky shoreline.  The weather is superb.  Not a breathe of wind.   We have found ourselves a B &B for the next two nights.  Yeah!!!  Three more nights accommodation ... Read more >

Woke this morning to a misty day.  Still warm, although Janice would disagree.  I think she's got use to Longreach temperatures.   We originally  had the idea of heading up into the top western corner of Brittany to do another ... Read more >

Yesterday was a bit of a lazy day in Pontivy, so we both decided to take the opportunity to get our hair cut.  24€ each for wash, cut and dry.  We both came away happy with our new do's:-)  On our last night in Gouarec we decided ... Read more >

Today we opted for plan B.  The car.  We wanted to visit a few of the local towns and castles before we leave tomorrow.  We're in Pontivy.  We visited here a few days ago to sort out a few issues with the car.  I wasn't too impressed ... Read more >

Today we decided to take the plunge and do a longer but flatish ride.  45km return trip to Mael-Carhaix.  Road and canal.  The brochure said the trip back along the canal was 25km.  It felt more like 35km, judging by how our bodies ... Read more >

I apologise for some of the photos.  Upside down, sideways.  The rotate function on this beast has a mind of it's own.  Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, and sometimes when I think it hasn't worked it has?!!  It's morning ... Read more >
