Planning a journey for the French la Vie through Brittany has been an incredible pleasure. Being with my good friend Francoise is equal to being with a sister that I never had but longed for, I admire how she can do anything (sculpting, weaving, rushing, sewing, knitting, painting, gardening… plus how she knows Brittany like the back of her hand. She zips around the small back roads, leads along coastal trails, and then whips up amazing meals seemingly without effort.
Brittany is beautiful, the landscape is intense, rich, with a rugged coastline that remains often of Northern California.
I asked Yann how he could have ever left and he replied,
"Tell me why the sky is blue?"
A question for a question is not an answer and neither is "I do not know".
Fortresses, castles, and ruins dot the endless coastline, plus there are trails that run all along the Emerald Coast.
Beautiful trails with breathtaking views.
The weather has been utterly flawless which has made the experience even more glorious.
Brittany is showing me all the stops.
Oh and the tides! How they go out for miles and then come back in five or six hours later. And while they are out you can walk to islands with other ruins on them. Or go Peche a Pied, which we plan to do.
France you never cease to amaze me.
