March 10, 2012: It is 6:30. Early Bird Special! I must be 7:29 to catch my train to Cornavin. I get up at the same time as the sun.

I'm loaded like a mule. I go 18 days on assignment. 18 days in the land of salted butter, bagpipes and the Merlin the enchanter: Brittany! I arrive at 17:50, the trip was long but I was reading happily. On arrival, my landlady, Annaïg Thomas, alias Aliwana is waiting for me, we must go shopping. We take this opportunity to quickly see the center of Vannes. I bought a Green Guide (Michelin) will be very helpful. I discovered the Tudor houses, not as one might think but half-timbered. The difference is that only Tudor style house has a floor general. The term also includes several timber timber framed (for example, there may be only the facade of the house is timber-framed, it will not be a Tudor style house. However if there are several sections of the houses that are built in timber frame, we can say that this is a Tudor style house).

We pass the Cathedral of St. Pierre (same name as one of Geneva) and we continue to walk quickly in the city.

Then, towards the city walls, I found a statue of Saint-Emilion ... like wine! that's a picture for my grandpa. Hop in the box.

We jump in the car and head towards the supermarket, this weekend there are friends of my landlady that are there. I'm tired from the trip, I read the green guide and note what is good to see and visit. The next day I get up to 16h, I really needed to sleep. I finish my reading and I took notes while the guests go home. The evening tours are being planned. Tomorrow, J2, it will be the animal park of Branféré and the village of Le Guerno.
