Skipper
off watch catching up on a few zeds
St Quay
has 1030 places for boats six to eighteen meters, a hundred of which are for
visitors. Despite its size it still has
a village atmosphere
The town was evangelised by St Kenan a
Welsh hermit, it is famous as being the scallop
capital of the world, its casino and five beaches.
Beez is the first boat sticking out from the rest of the row
*
The lido on one of the
beaches and a view of the harbour taken from the coast guard office.
St Quay - Portrieux has a
fishing tradition that dates back to the seventeenth century. The original boats
used to fish off Iceland.
Nowadays between November
and April the fleet rises to one hundred boats for the scallop
season.
The only strange
thing is the showers
You find a cubicle, go back to
the panel and insert two euros. Run to your cubicle, you have one minute to get
ready,
seven minutes to shower
and four minutes to dress. All very
weird.
My birthday. Thank you for all my emails, phone calls,
messages, cards and presents. A special THANK YOU to Alex and Dave on Muggins,
who sent me
away with my pressies – Bee purse, wash bag, towel bag
and “Hot Stuff” towel, really brilliant. I have had a smashing
day,……….
We
leave here Monday the thirtieth of June, a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to ALEX
and KATE xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx
