We like Vannes and it was a good opportunity to explore before Abbi caught the train back to Nantes

Vannes market is great with so much food (and other stuff) displayed wonderfully The Duc de Bretagne doesn't look too happy I don't think we have many hat shops left in the UK but in France...... ..

Happily the weather has really cooperated during Abbi's visit. Lovely weather on Noirmoutier followed by a couple of really nice sailing days. We had originally planned to take the short hop back to Pornic (easy for getting to Nantes airport) but we all wanted to take advantage of the nice sailing weather; first to go from Noirmoutier to la Turballe and then from there to le Crouesty. Both days were really good sailing - so much so that I forgot to take any pictures !

O ur last day in Salcombe was a memorable one. Clear blue skies and warm weather was the perfect setting to go up to Salcombe Yacht Club, enjoy their excellent barbecue(and a pint of Doombar) and then settle down to watch the start of the Salcombe Yawls second race of the day. It's a very competitive fleet and cries of "starboard" and "water " rang across the estuary. The other side of the coin is that Salcombe is a hugely popular place(for good reason) and the dinghy park is a thing to behold !
