Travelled along the Loire yesterday and arrived at a France Passion site, a winemaker in a village called Haute Guerlan. The family were having late lunch (Sunday) when we arrived. Set up on shady area of grass. Had a drink and a sit and then walked into the village, it was closed.
Returned to the van and had a drink, a sit and a meal while the family played various games, boules, petanque etc.
After breakfast this morning we went to taste the wine. We bought a few bottles at 2.40 Euros a bottle.
Travelled around Nantes into the centre of Brittany. Walked around various megalithic stone sites at St Just, walked into the old centre of Redon, stopping to watch boats go through the lock, and on to Rochefort en Terre.
Found the campsite and got pitched. Walked into the village - very old and pretty. Went to a free folk concert. Had galettes and a beer (Lynda a cider). Band were from Ireland - stayed for three songs and then returned to van.
Tomorrow we intend to explore the area further visiting Josselin and the area associated with King Arthur and Merlin.
