After the pandemic that was Covid, except we’re in the (we hope) late knockings, we’re on the road again.
Bank holiday Monday 2nd May & we’re on a Brittany Ferries boat to Saint-Malo; we’ve told our nearest & dearest we won’t be back until second week of June. Another road trip then. And we are very excited to start reliving the gap years dream. We even had a repeat of the start of our last, Sri Lankan holiday some 27 months ago (when Chris left his bank card in a cash dispenser at Columbo airport). Kath jammed her Visa card in a Portsmouth car park ticket machine; one kind passer-by showed amazing finger strength to pull it out.
May 3rd we arrive at 8.15 (EST) in France to celebrate Kath’s 65th. Checked into a charming small hotel, Le Quic-en-Groigne, within the old walled town. Today we have walked the town walls – very wide walkways circumventing about 95% of the town, as well as walking out to Le Grand & Petit Be islands, accessible at low tides. Also found the tidal swimming pool Kath is going to test tomorrow.
Tonight, meanwhile & on our host’s advice, we went to a traditional French restaurant which was perfect for birthday girl (& me).
