Vacation in Brittany.

Hello  Friends!

We are staying in Brittany and this is our hotel and the view from our bow window.

The place is called Saint Malo and is a fortified town, a place where  Surcouf the pirate was living and where Jaques Cartier first sailed to Quebec.

We are having beautiful weather and I think I will go in the sea tomorrow morning.

This shop is full of different spices like in the old days when the ships traded spices, coffee…

We are having a good rest and now going to have supper at the restaurant. 

See you tomorrow with more pictures!

Between land and sea.

Hello Friends,

Welcome to Brittany the land of fairies and of Merlin, King Arthur and Broceliande forest a magical place!

There is a succession of big stones the name of the place is Helgoat. It is called a Tor an accumulation of granitic stones.

One is 7 m long 3 m high and weigh 137 tons.

Lots of beliefs and legends in this place.

These stones are considered as synonymous of miracles.

People come to touch them for a happy marriage .

They are also called the rocking stones.

They are located in a forest and this is really a very impressive place! This part of Brittany is called Finistère ( land’s end)

Lot’s of beautiful churches 

 

The churches have many treasures inside, such as Saint’s relics.

The land with heather is called les Monts d’Arree such a beautiful place and a nice view from the top.

Today, I am not too bad after my first Covid injection , I only had some pain in the back, I hope the second one at the end of the month will be fine.

Today, we are having an horrible weather! Cold and rain.

I know that it is dry and we need some rain, but it also ruins the flowers ! We had high wind and it broke my beautiful peonies!

Hope you are having a better weather!

I wish you a good day!

thank you for your visits and comments I am always very pleased to hear from you.
