Brittany bike tour (part 1)

Wifi was spotty during the bike tour week so hadn't blogged much but here is the recap of our bike tour in Brittany that we did with C, JB, and A/S.

I don't have the mental energy to write too many words so instead I will recap with pictures.

Day 1:
A short ride to Paimpol. A late start (3pm) but the days were long (sunset was something like 10pm) so didn't make much of a difference. Paimpol is a small little harbor town. Unfortunately the hotel room was the tiniest I have seen in a while and the bathroom was a little ridiculous (in a bad way). But at least our room had a view.



Day 2:

Another short biking day (we were staying at the tiny hotel for 2 nights) but this time over to the Ile Brehat island. So more coastal views. And tons of hay bales. Farmland and hay bales were a lot of what we saw which of course makes me think of the Amazing race.



Day 3:

An actual longer biking day with beach stops and a garden. There were a bunch of small steep hills on the way there. Toward the end of the ride, we explored the Jardins de Kerdalo which was lovely and we could actually see our destination across the water which was cool.
