Wednesday.
Shitty weather day so walked into baden larmor to book for dinner
I wanted to go to Plein Sud but decided to check out the other places like saveurs Marin and voile Blanche
Turned out that Plein sud only open for lunch and Saveurs was fully booked so had no choice in the end it had to be White sail. Had a couple of drinks at lunchtime at Plein sud and tried to work out how the gambling on the chariot races worked having established that they can only
Trot.
Had afternoon shower and rest before dinner
Ian had the best oysters (tried to get some  at lunchtime from fresh place but we were too late. Also missed the cake shop which didn't open weds afternoon so no birthday cake for me.
I had nothing I fancied as starter but there was a goats cheese salad so asked for that as starter she wasn't sure she could do it so I said don't care cost. It came as just cheese on toast. Dry not the best. Main course was hake on Buerre blanc and rice. Was nice enough. Went to Plein sud for drink before dinner came back  just as it was getting dark played cards slept really well but ian got cramp at 4am woke screaming. Had almost 11 hours sleep.

Sat Sunday Le lac campsite Carnac

Lovely campsite on a lake
Met Paula and Andy Cooper and Deb and Mike Lilley and walked into Trinite sir Mer the scenic route guided by Paula. About 6 miles to get there then we had a few pints and in the third place thought they were serving food but they weren't. Ended up eating Ian had steak tartare. I had a couscous with mussels and langoustines. 8/10
Mike ate twice speed of every one then wouldn't share his creek brûlée he protected it with his arms like a sparrow hawk. He said he ate quick cos it was going to go cold.
In the evening we sat in Debbie's van chatting and drinking and learning about spingle spangles

Mike cooked a full English with scrambled eggs on his gas griddle that he had fitted a line to his yak for. The ladies washed up and I said I felt like a Stepford wife as we all walked down with washing up bowls.

Sunday cycled to to Carnac via the menhirs which were spectacular pics to follow made the same mistake of ordering beer before finding they weren't serving food so we cycled back. Total ride about 18 miles. 13 in and 5 back as it started to rain. Had a pretty good meal at the campsite. Calamari risotto followed by Steak and chips. 7/10
Played dominos in van. Ian told terrible joke and couldn't get it out for laughing.

Chateulin

aka shittyland. Stayed in an Aire out of town.  Supermarket car park. Was fine but the only decent restaurant was fully booked ended up in an Asian place where they microwave the samosas but they were surprisingly ok. Ian had duck and lychees and I had I had monkfish in a kind of ratatouille. 6/10
