Fouesnant - Jean-Jacques plays the drums

Wednesday – We didn’t feel the need to rush today. Following our standard breakfast of coffee and baguette we managed to be on the way to Ghislaine’s place just after 10:00. We had agreed to meet her at her home in Fouesnant. Ghislaine then took us for quite a lengthy trip around her local area and the beach where she goes swimming every day. It’s a pleasant locality and in the summer becomes a tourist haven. This evening, she took us to see and listen to Jean-Jacques playing the drums in his jazz band in “Concarneau”. He’s good, the whole group is good, and they hope to get some club gigs later in the year. Ghislaine, Sylvie and I went back to her place via a local hotel where the band came to share a couple of drinks on the way home. After drinks Jean-Jacques went to pick up Denise, his mother, and we went home with Ghislaine to wait for them. That evening we had a fabulous sea food dinner that Jean-Jacques and Ghislaine prepared. Close to midnight we took Denise home with us. Driving in the dark along the tiny roads and laneways with poor lighting was difficult going. Glad to be home in bed.Read more
