First Day. Up before 6 to feed meowing cat and fit in a morning's work. Done by 11.15 and then a leisurely packing (had to jettison one blouse and one dress as, despite not bringing my laptop, ai wasЧитать далее

Last month's trip, I paid the additional reservation fee to get the fast train to (and from) the South of France. Because I was working while away and needed to not lose two whole days travelling. IЧитать далее

One of the nice things about changing trains in a few places, is that you get brief glimpses of places you've not seen before. Now, the area next to a railway isn't always the nicest part, so IЧитать далее

And then I got to St Nazaire. I have not explored much yet. The walk from the station passed what seemed like a lot of building work. And I didn't spot any small winding streets. I was feeling aЧитать далее

Today, I indulged in a bit of a lie-in, and then took a walk along the seafront. I saw quite a few nice historic old buildings and the wind was refreshing and bracing. I found two nice parks to wamderЧитать далее

ПутешественникThey are lovely. And realising this is St Nazaire not Nantes! Brain not switched on when on holiday apparently.

Did not make it to Nantes today. Body had a bad reaction to something (I suspect it was the cream on the strawberry tart - 50% of the time I have whipped cream these days it disagrees with me, so IЧитать далее
ПутешественникGetting there. Had another day in bed, unfortunately, but I think tomorrow I will be able to make it to Nantes. I have been persuaded out of being grumpy about it, because I am still having a week off work, which in itself is a massive step. I might not fit in everything I wanted to do or see, but even if I don’t manage to go anywhere else other than little wanders along the sea that will be wonderful enough.
Путешественникgood. i worried a bit. just checking in. don't forget to touch the sea!
ПутешественникThank you. I should go take a paddle again, yes! Maybe I will nip out this evening, actually.

Went to the Musée des Artes, which was wonderful. And then spotted quite a bit of street art while wandering around.

Yes!!! I stood in front of it for ages and bought four postcards of it. Such a wonderful painting.

Really liked Nantes. To the point where I was regretting not booking a week there instead of here. Or maybe half a week in Nantes and half in Rennes would have been cool.
However, that's just aЧитать далее
