Yesterday I spent ages working out how to get from here to a place near Carnac where there are many many large standing stones and other prehistoric stuff. I ended up with a solution that meant we would leave here at 7.55 to get to the place at 11.15, the requested 45 mintes before the 12: noon tour I had booked ( and paid for) . I had done the same rough workings before we booked but with tighter connections that we decided last night were too tight. We both went through the timetables again last night and for some reason agreed that I would set the alarm for 6am.
This morning , at 6am when the alarm went, I realised that it was an hour earlier than we needed. We both decided that , in the interests of us both enjoying Strasbourg and then me enjoying a busy 10 days in the US, we would do nothing much today and hopefully not be an hour out in our next timetabling exercise.
Next thing I knew it was 8.30 am. We wandered out for breakfast and spent what was left of the morning sitting in the sun on our verandah overlooking the rooves of Vannes. After lunch we went for a walk along the 1.5km canal , called the Pleasure Port that links Vannes with the Gulf of Morbihan. There were lots of boats that would have fitted well into the marina of Batemans Bay, very downmarket compared to the beautiful, sleek racing machines we saw on Thursday.
Now to pack up, ready for our move tomorrow to Strasbourg.
