At St Malo



















And Mont St Michelle














With the whole group at Mont St Michelle


















And at La Baule, swimming in the Atlantic


The memorial at 50 Hotages - (Nazis massacred 50 hostages in the middle of town during the Holocaust in response to a communist rebellion)














At night there are lights underneath and fountains that spray water to look like fog, it's very atmospheric.


















One day I was sitting on the side of this river (L'Edre) and the man who lives on these two boats paddled over to the bank, standing up in the front of his dinghy gondala style, watered the trees that grow in some small boats and in the picnic tables, peed in a corner, and returned to his houseboat.














I was sitting here, and these were the trees he watered.














We went to see les Machînes de l'île. I tried to put up a video, but I haven't figured it out yet.














Merry go round
