Notre Dame

We toured the cathedral and climbed the towers when we were in Paris last week. We walked around the Latin Quarter this evening and took this picture during our walk.

Dinner

Veg pizza in Tours, France....yummy.

We enjoyed take out in our hotel room while watching the Olympics.

Being silly

Girls....lift with your legs

Inside

La Roche-aux-Fées

This place is amazing.

Roundabouts

The roundabouts are growing on me. If you miss your turn, you just go around again--you just have to ignore the commentary from the back seat..."Mom, we're going in circles."

Another playground

Including a complicated teeter totter.

Our new digs

Never been so happy to check into a basic Novotel hotel.

Our last B&B (4 nights) left a lot to be desired. I guess when the proprietor serves you your hot chocolate in her bathrobe, you know it can't be good.

On the long walk back

About 5k each way--getting some exercise to counteract all the croissants!

City of Rennes

Walked into the city center today. Lots of rain--will need to look about buying another umbrella tomorrow. It just isn't possible to fit 4 people under our little pink umbrella and still walk!

Playing at the playground

Discovered this park on our home--had to stop to try it out!

Chicken flavored potato chips

Marlee liked them. I was not such a big fan.

Dinner with Le Mont Saint Michel in the background

Very windy!
