Bonjour!!!!!
I'm spending my fall break in Bretagne... it's a truly beautiful region of France.
I've been spending my time at the sea, travelling around the region, eating food that is too good to be true, spending time with the French (which are too much fun), drinking a little wine now and then, eating seafood (tonight was crab, shrimp, oysters, and crayfish [ I think], and really just having too much fun.
The first photo is of me (duh! :) at a "menhir," they are placed all over Bretagne and are hundreds of years old. There is a sort of legend that if you throw a rock up and it lands on the ledge, you will be married within the year... no worries, it took me 3 times to get the rock to land! I guess that means that I've either got 3 more years, or it'll be the third man? We'll see! But I guess that means no worries, I won't come back married to a French man. At least that worry is crossed off the list, Mom and Dad!
I've been lucky with mostly beautiful weather (although the rain can be as equally beautiful as the sun), and truly generous hosts here.
J'adore La Bretagne...
