August 10th – Ancensis to Beg Meil, Brittany

---

First stop, L'Eclerc which was open now of course. Tyre pressures checked, fill up with fuel & off on what was quite a long journey but pleasant enough. We thought that we would see lots of GB plated cars as we got closer to the coast but we only saw 5. Brittany used to be full of Brits when we used to take the children when they were young – it's now full of ..French. Bet you thought I was going to say Dutch – didn't see one.

We have now travelled 6,995 miles or c.11,658km for those running metric...

We arrived at the site which is pleasant enough but mainly statics – nice ones though & not a shanty town at all. We've booked in here for 13 nights so intend to do a fair bit of cycling around the coast. Also a bit miffed that even though we intend to stay for so long & spend a fair amount they charge extra for wifi - & it's not even secure. We had a bbq but later in the evening it started to drizzle – the forecast wasn't great either. Oh well...
