A day with the Jaffes!

A fantastic day was had today. We met up with the Jaffe family who are working on the return leg of their holiday journey. We met at the municipal campsite in Tinteniac and it was great! The children all went off together and had much larking about time. A family cycle ensued in the afternoon alongside the canal by Tinteniac; 7 miles up, ice cream, 7miles back. A great cycle for everyone. Above is the token islabikes photo shoot. All the boys raced off into the distance, Maya pootled along with Emma (not in shot) who was the only child not on an islabike, but an old heavy single geared short crank affair, but did an amazing job given that she only learnt to ride 2 weeks ago. 
The evening was a lovely time too. We sat out, bbq'd, drank copious amounts of wine as the children played together, and again made more on site friends (Jacques and ?????). 
So a big thankyou to the Jaffe family. A lovely time had by all. So it's onto Carnac now. 3 days there I think then down to La Rochelle. Keep you posted!

  1. Isla Bikes rule, imagine how fast Emma is going to go when she does get on one!
    We're home now, a nice rocky ferry ride and poorly cockerel but otherwise all good.
    Enjoy the rest of your trip, love the Jaffe's
