Le fin des vacances

As much as I would love to keep on pedalling in beautiful France, the dreaded work email deluge awaits. We will be spending 7 hours on a ferry tomorrow so that should give me plenty of time to do a deletefest.

It was such a beautiful day today that a long walk along a cliff path to Cancale for lunch seemed like a great idea (to me anyway!)

 

It was a rather hilly and hot 8.5 mile walk with 1388 feet of climbing and a fair amount of whinging by the Support Crew

Lunch was at a restaurant recommended by our wonderful neighbour, Janie, who looks after Arthur and puts up with all the fur, muck and chaos that involves. I suspect looking at the weather in the U.K. that she has also had to do rather a lot of watering of Rusty's plants - she is very much appreciated!

This Poire Belle Helene was quickly inhaled along with a suitable amount of fishy creatures

 

The tide was out so we got a great view of the oyster beds on the way back

 

So the final conclusions about cycling 562 miles around Brittany:

- It has thrown every type of weather possible at us  

- It is stunningly beautiful

- The campsites are mostly great

- I just love cycling in France
