Quimper - a city of art and history,

Thursday – Today it was time to return our car to Avis in Quimper. The final drive was a bit tense being concerned about any damage before the return, or someone bumping into us before we could park and hand back the keys. At Avis there was a bit of “to and fro” with parking but all worked out well. Next, we had a detailed discussion with the Avis staff about the accident and replacement car in Saint Malo. Following this and guidance on how to get to the city center we walked into Quimper and did the tourist trail of the old city and the cathedral of “Saint Corentin” but being January many things were closed for the holidays or restoration. Nonetheless it is a pleasant town with many beautiful and historic places to see. Our day was slightly spoilt by the persistent cold and occasional light showers. Lunch was had in a little tucked away bar. Tonight, we’re having galettes and crepes and didn’t want to duplicate our meals. We walked the nine hundred meters home but once again being confused by the faulty directions from google maps on our phones. For dinner Ghislaine drove us to “Au Vieux Quimper” where we were joined by Jean-Jacques. Another super night out. Tomorrow, we leave for the Charles de Gaul (CDG) airport hotel. This evening, we saw that Avis has lodged a temporary charge of $2795.88 on my credit card until the insurance claim is resolved and settled.Читать далее
