En vacances...

I am in my French holiday home in Brittany at the moment, hence my lack of blogging. Here is a picture of a nearby marina. I am having a kind of Internet detox. Instead, for the past few days I have been...
  • Travelling on the Eurostar for the first time
  • Reading 'The Book Thief' by Marcus Zusak (an excellent book narrated by Death about a girl growing up in Nazi Germany)
  • Picking blackberries
  • Watching the stars and Jupiter through a telescope
  • Walking through a river with my dog
  • Eating lots and lots (including Breton cake, galette, crêpe, croissants mmm)
  • Climbing rocks
  • Shopping in little artisan shops
  • Taking photos
  • Drawing pictures
  • Playing games with my niece
  • Improving my French
  • ... and watching British TV in the evenings; it's good that I can watch British TV as the majority of French TV seems so tacky.
