Le Pouldu

It seems that we are having similar weather to home - it turned quite cold on Monday with lots of heavy showers. So we moved on and spent some time in Hennebont - an attractive little town but with hardly anybody about in the grotty weather. But it was our day for a meal out and found a delightful little restaurant where we enjoyed the menu du jour. We actually heard English voices for the first time - at the next table were 2 English chaps being entertained by 2 French ones - a business lunch. We are managing with our limited language, making ourselves understood pretty well - we are a bit of a double act as I can quite often get the gist of what is being said and John can put an answer together quicker than I can!
After lunch we went for a stroll in their lovely park - not really the best conditions for a g-hunt but would you believe it - we actually found all the clues (except one which we were able to guess) and work out where the treasure was to be found - all in the pouring rain! Funny we didn't see anyone else in the park that day - can't think why! A swan was sitting on its nest, strangely very close to the edge of the park and the road.

And so to Le Pouldu - what a beautiful place - a seaside town with a big sandy bay but also a little cove beside the rocks and a tiny harbour. This smaller bay is 250m from our campsite. Decided to stay a bit longer here in the hope that the weather would improve.


It rained quite a bit more on and off yesterday too, so we did some shopping in Quimperle and had a walk by the Riviere Laita. By the evening it was all sunshine again so down to the beach for a photo or two.


Off for a coastal walk today as it is a lot brighter this morning.
Talk again soon .....
