Ozoir-la-Ferrière

Ozoir-la-Ferrière
After our semi Paris-fiasco, we opted for a more popular choice for our younger crowds: Arnold and Michèle took us all to a close enough zoological park, where wild cats and other exotic creatures were promised. Indeed they were there, but also monkeys...

Classics in Paris

Classics in Paris
A bit of an impulse decision, we drove to Paris to visit Arnold and Michèle (sadly Julie and Côme were away!). Once in the capital, we got on a bateau mouche to enable Lili, Poppy and Otto to experience a bit of "Paris by the Seine". Not such a success,...

In the fields

In the fields
Our annual - most anticipated - "visit to Tonton David" resulted in a series of adventures! To name but a few: Otto picked some eggs from the "real hens", he was allowed to stroke David's ferret, got a ride on his second cousin Simon's horse, Loko, and...

La Fête de la mer à Dieppe

La Fête de la mer à Dieppe
Pete, Pops, Grand-mère and I ventured to La Fête de la mer on Sunday. Ordinary fishing boats had been decorated, wooden tables were out and songs were heard. Poppy enjoyed herself very much - likes seamen's songs, apparently - and was even happier when...

By the sea in Brittany

By the sea in Brittany
We've had typical breton weather - clouds, sun, wind, rain and then warmth again... not ideal for the suntan seekers, but pretty fine for us, as the variety offered many possibilities - sand castle building, shell collection, crab hunt, quick paddle....

Alberto

Alberto
Every cloud has a silver lining... as demonstrated in Landerneau, where we unexpectedly discovered a very good exhibition of Giacometti's works, as rain had discouraged us from heading towards the sea. Otto got a bit bored, so did Poppy, but nothing they...

Le Cairn de Barnenez

Le Cairn de Barnenez
After a couple of days in Dieppe, we drove to North Brittany. Our first visit was to the "cairn" in Barnenez, an impressive archeological site from the neolithic times. The view was amazing, as well as the history behind the construction of this monument...

Le Tour à Dieppe!

Le Tour à Dieppe!
We had barely spent one night in Dieppe...and the Tour de France turned up! First time ever that we all witnessed the race from so close. As we were in the middle of a slope, we had a little bit more time to watch the group of cyclists as it wizzed in...
