Journeys of Aardvarc

Camaret

Fri 6 Jul 2012 18:04

48:16.72N 04:35.00W A lovely passage from L'Aberwrac'h ( weird apostrophes) to Camaret via the infamous Chenal du Four. It was calm and sunny and the tidal stream was not too strong and in our favour ( good planning there!).
Camaret is beautiful and we spent 2 days there ( one holed up in the cabin sheltering from the rain). But we managed to get the folding bikes out and have a cycle round. Met a lovely golden retriever ( age 8) who looks like she is related to Pumpkin. In the evening there was a Fete with locals playing bagpipes and singing traditional Breton songs, queues 50 yards long for vast vats of Moules Mariniere.
