And Onwards to Brittany

We had a great week in Normandy, but the time had come to move on to Brittany.  Our next house was in the village of Poullaouen not far from Carhaix-Plouguer.  On the way we stopped off at a clifftop suburb of St Malo called Rothéneuf to the Les Rochers sculptures carved by the Abbe Faure, a retired priest between 1894 and 1910.
