Whetting the Appetite

.

We couldn't come to the area without visiting Vannes which we did this morning. Managed to get up early and brave the rain. By now Christian is coughing well and my throat is starting to dry which isn't surprising as Christophe came with it, Valérie and her Mum have had it and been to the doctor's for a bagful of prescription medicines.
Vannes is a real delight ... old timbered buildings, narrow streets and classy shops. Much as we would have liked to stay there for lunch in one of the very tempting restaurants, we had to get back to celebrate Emma's birthday. She's a wee poppet and was a delight to watch blowing out her candles and opening her presents. Vannes is definitely on the list for another visit.
