That music…. you know the music on brittany ferries… you will know it if you have ever been on the over night ferry! Does anyone know if you can download it as a phone alarm?! Well, it woke us up after a rocky night at sea. I was sure I could hear Stew off for a wonder in the cabin next door… but he assured me not!

I remembered with the club thing we have for getting cheaper ferries that we got free breakfast… so I popped down to the cafe for essentials… coffee, pastries and fruit, and we cleared our stuff out the cabin and headed for freckle. Not before I stopped in the makeup shop to take advance of some testers!

Back in the van the (always slightly nervous) wait to start freckle began! The radio 1 summer mix was lined up and passports at the ready!

We headed for a quick nose around saint malo, past broken back car park and to have a look at a potential campsite for our last night.

Obviously the bridge at Nantes was a highlight (who doesn’t love a big bridge).

Once on the main road, the route was clear and we went past all the entertaining farm artwork from bales of hay and things!

We had to stop at decathlon… to buy a load of bits we forgot (like bike helmets!)

Then the food shop for cheese and oysters before the final push for the coast!

We arrived at camping cypress https://www.camping-lescypres85.com/en. and found our pitch. We’ve got a lot more stuff this year so it was an interstingbfindung places to put it!

A trip to the beach and game of bat and ball was as energetic as it got for all of us!

Once back from the beach we feasted on oysters, prawns and sausages! The children are settled down for a bed whilst we wait for bed time as we are super tired!
