Leaving Limoges and heading north we found a lovely town with a chateau called Montreuil Bellay. It was good for a ( free) overnight stop on the banks of the river.
The next day we continued on to Dinan, and found another free camping aire under the huge viaduct which runs over the river. We enjoyed great views and were well placed to explore the old, cobbled medieval town centre.
On Saturday we met up with Chris and Lin on the beach at Erquy.
Beautiful, vast, spotlessly clean sandy coves bordered by jagged, rocky coastlines. On Sunday we explored Cap Frehel and the light house. Great climbing down to the water's edge.
Monday 30th June ... Happy birthday to me!! We cycled along the coast path back into Erquy and found a great little restaurant on the harbour front. I had moules frites which were delicious, and everyone else ate well too. That evening we had an impromptu cheese and wine party. It is still light until at least 10.45pm in the evenings.
We followed the 'Circuit des Falaises' around the coastline. The sea scape is interesting with hundreds of rocky islets everywhere you look.
At Paimpol we were the only people on the campsite. There was a crazy golf course there but no-one to lend us any equipment so we improvised with a potato and a golf umbrella! When the potato didn't roll through the holes and tunnels you had to use your best snooker skills instead!
Good fun, and I was the crazy golf Champ!! Will continue round the next headland tomorrow.
