47:52.24N 03:54.91W A nice short trip from Benodet brings us to the fascinating old town of Concarneau. There is an old walled city accessed via a drawbridge full of little restaurants and shops.
This evening we were visited by Francoise, a delightful lady who organises fresh food deliveries to the visiting boats. Tomorrow morning we are looking forward to Croissants, Pain au Chocolat ( for Heather) and fresh baguettes. She even managed to organise for us to be delivered a hose pipe( un Tuyeau) so that we can take on fresh water. Turns out her daughter studied at Aston University in Brum, so she recognised Heather's accent.
