We were invited to join La Tranche friends Guy & Isabelle and Maryse & Yves for a few days in Brittany. Of course we jumped at the chance.
All packed into one car off we set, first stop Redon.
Boats are a big thing in the town which lies the between the Oust and Vilaine rivers...
...the Nantes-Brest canal running through its centre.
We were lucky to see a boat going through the locks, a reminder of our previous life by the Five Rise Locks in Bingley.
The steeple of l'Abbaye de Saint-Sauveur watches over the medieval town...
...with its many half-timbered houses.
An impressive row of houses.
Tine & Maryse going all Bretonne!
'Scènes du temps passé', graffiti from 1982 representing three old ladies in silk headdresses.
In 2020 the original artist brought his work up-to-date.
Back to the Nantes-Brest canal...
...and a picnic before returning to the car.
