Evening all!
As I write this, it is raining very hard but that doesn't really matter to us as we are all showered and in our pyjamas listening to "Owl Babies" - Maya's choice! Its only just 8pm, but we have had such a busy (and lovely) day that we are all shattered! Started this morning with a hearty 2 course breakfast of cereals and then pain au chocolats, followed by a good 6 mile bike ride to see the 7,000 year old megaliths that Carnac is famed for. Very impressive, but I believe the jury is still out as to what they were for and why the site was chosen.
Back to the site for lunch (baguettes of course, what else is there to eat!?!) and once a few domestic chores had been completed such as sweeping up, cleaning the fridge, and emptying the toilet cassette, we set off for the beach as the sun was high and bright in the blue sky. Several hours of children playing in and out of the sea, on and off rocks, in and out of rock-pools ensued, making it an afternoon to remember. Ed and I managed to relax a little and enjoy the sun as Jasper and Maya were happy and content with each other for company.
This evening we decided to head off to a nearby creperie for a treat. Unfortunately we arrived too early, so we had to return to the site and to our second choice of creperie venue, the on site catering facilities, more what you would call a glorified shed. Anyway, we ordered and paid for some delicious crepes and were all highly satisfied with our choice of fillings, no one more so than Jasper who had ordered "chocolat" which turned out to be chocolate powder shaken in enough quantity to sink a ship and so that it melted quite nicely too!
Tres delicious!
So now it is quiet time. Time to write diaries and blogs, read books and kindles whilst the children settle in their beds.
Bon Soir!
