Our day began with a delicious homemade breakfast and some talk with our host Thierry. We headed for Quimper and their market. One part is enclosed, the other out of doors. What wonderful stalls of fish and seafood, fruits, vegetables, meats and cheeses, clothing of all kinds, and wonderful locals buying their provisions for the next few days, and us buying our provisions for today.
After purchasing a lunch centered around chicken, we headed for HB Henriot, the premiere faience producer of Quimper. While we were inside, we heard some commotion outside. People were readying themselves for a wedding. There were Breton costumed dancers and bagpipe players. Once the newlyweds emerged from the chapel the fun began. Dancing, music, flower petals and family members. What a sight! Made some faience purchases and headed for Pointe du Raz on the Atlantic coast.
What a beautiful spot for a lunch. Looking out over the Atlantic then hiking to the pointe itself. The experience was amazing, the sights were spectacular.
We packed up and headed back for Locronan and the small restaurant that Thierry had recommended. Wonderful meal. Our table overlooked the coast, far, far away and was a good vantage for watching the sunset. What a great day. Headed back to Trezervan.
