Oops, I forgot about our stop at Quimperlé on our way to Cécile & Arnaud's for their house-warming at Larmor-Barden (more next time).
We were very impressed with the town with its friendly people and interesting architecture. Well worth another visit, I think.

| The small brick market provided us with our lunch |
 |
| Le Pont Fleuri (The Floral Bridge)... |
 |
| ...watched over by one of the town's famous sons, Théodore Hersart, a 19th century poet and author, and promoter of Breton culture |
 |
| The Sainte-Croix church is circular |
 |
| with the original convent and cloisters now part of the police station. |
 |
| Inside the church the nave was raised above a crypt |
 |
| containing artifacts and this beautiful 'Mise au Tombeau' (Entombment of Christ) that we saw in several churches in Brittany. |
