Let's Have a Walk

A morning walk is proposed. We travel to Pointe Saint-Mathieu for the first walk. CJ has been to this place many times, Carol fewer times. We have often toured the ruins of the abbey, toured the small fort, and dined at the fine restaurant either by choice or as business guests.

In our many visits somehow, we never discovered the small chapel.

The inscription is neither in Latin or French. It is in Bretton.

It is a very windy day. The best indication: the buoy.

This phare (lighthouses) of Brittany are renown. One of them is here.

The abbey ruins always excite. It is said, the head of Saint Mathew was held at this location.

Our next walk is along the coast in nearby Le Conquet.

With rain threatening, we seek refuge at the remodeled St. Barbe restaurant and hotel and enjoy a drink while the squall passes. This place holds many memories. At his first corporate dinner, CJ was introduced to Plateau Fruit de Mer, a literal mountain of fresh and mostly raw seafood: lobster, shrimp, snails, clams, oysters, and bigorneaux (periwinkle). Five years and many corporate and private dinners later, the Thomson team feted CJ's departure here.

The rains move in again and we spend a lazy day at the house.
