    OK so harbour master appeared this morning (Tuesday) , his office was closed up yesterday but we did try, he seemed surprised that we wanted to stay 2 nights, but the place is cute and as weather OK we decided to use today to have a ‘formula midi’ a set menu meal, and then ride to Pointe de Penmarc'h, Phare Eckmuhl, as I hadn't really appreciated it much on the way past yesterday. There are actually 3 lighthouses in a row, also Tuesday is market day. Below is photo looking down and then up the 287 steps. Also photos of the boats offloading their catches sadly it was busier yesterday but we didn't know what was going on then so no cameras.
