We are now in Brest in an Internet Cafe - but one without drinks! That will have to be our next stop!
Back to Wednesday when we had a fairly easy day moving on to Camaret-sur-Mer, stopping off to do a geocache on a beach - we were fortunate that it was low tide so we could find the cave behind a huge rock (more of an island really) by walking round it rather than over the top! Also walked around the port at Morgat. The campsite at Trezrouz near Camaret was a bit scruffy, but it was overlooking the sea and it had a washing machine. So was an ideal stop over as the washing dried in the cool breeze during the evening.
Thursday was very dull, but dry so we explored Camaret by doing two caches on the stone jetty. The first was outside the chapel of Notre Dame de Rocamadour (very peaceful inside with Breton music and lots of symbols of the sea - model boats hanging from the ceiling) and the other was
Towards the end of the day we drove almost to Brest, to another lovely campsite at St Jean beside the tidal Elorn. This was so nice we decided to spend Friday on the Presqu'il Pougastel Daoulas peninsular and return to St Jean for the night.
Yesterday began with rain dripping from the tree above us onto the van rooftop, but later in the morning the sun came out and it was the hottest day for several. Plougastel was celebrating 8th May 1945 VE day and we watched a little ceremony outside the church.
Then to Brest this morning where we parked at Oceanopolis to visit the wonderful sea life centre - an Eden Project of the sea. More details next blog. Off to see Centre Ville.
