26/05/2014 : Avranches

Monday

Another great nights sleep. We seem to be sleeping better in Frank than we do at home!

Woke to grey skies, but quite pleasant so Jo and I went for a ride for half an hour leaving Amelia to sort herself out. Planned our route for the day, wrote it down and everything, but 20 minutes after departure we realised we were going in completely the wrong direction - it must have been a navigator error because I was driving to instructions. 

As we passed a brocante I tried to  tell Jo it was closed. Jo's french however,was better than that, her teach yourself french CDs obviously doing the trick (sign said 'ouverte'). So we stopped, and another Pastis bottle was purchased to add to the collection. 


We ended the day at the aire in Avranches. It was a nice spot and the town lovely so we went for a walk and passed a pleasant hour in the town square, soaking up evening sunshine, two colours of wine and a Ricard. 


J and A made delicious burgers. We settled in for a quiet evening, planning the next day and round 2 of Yahtzee. Heading towards the Normandy beaches tomorrow.
