Plozevet

Well, a great deal has happened since our last blog and tonight, although we have purchased with our life-savings of €1, 1 hour of internet use, it has taken most of that time to connect! So we will continue tomorrow, with another euro what we can't do now.
Back to Wednesday still at Le Pouldu - a lovely site called Les Embrans which means Seaspray. They had certainly made a huge effort to enhance the site to suit its name - there were water features, a lighthouse, several garden displays with boats, nets and buoys and if you went to the loo block without being sure what you were going for, you certainly remembered when you got there, with a water feature with not one but 3 different fountains by the door! Then when you got inside, there were decorations on the tiling, a helm on the wall, fishing nets above the showers ....!
The weather started much brighter that day, so we set off on the coast path towards Doelan, the next coastal village. Spectacular scenery with rocky stretches and sandy coves. We ate our picnic sitting on a seat on a high cliff and were soon joined by a lone dog - he sat behind us not even licking his lips. We wonder if we were on his seat! As we packed up to move on, he got up and strolled back along the path - that was when we realised that there was a house behind the trees and hedges. Will stop here, to add photos. Will continue story tomorrow.

  1. We have enjoyed reading about your travels. It brings back memories of that area which we visited nearly a quarter of a century ago!! We stayed twice with friends in Quimper. We enjoyed exploring that region, including Pont Aven, Cap Coz, Port Manech, Concarneau.

    Don't go spending my inheritance on dodgy internet connections! Just caught up with all your travels since being away myself, albeit in much warmer climes in Dubai; 40 degrees and climbing. The photos look great - wish we were there too. See you soon. Love PHEAxxxx
