After the rain - Bretagne (5)







Sun, rain, sun etc. today. We were headed towards the marais de Pen en Toul (Pen en Toul swamp), chose to ignore the menacing grey clouds and got caught in a downpour. So we headed back home. got our umbrellas and went back out for another walk. This time we walked through the village, then on the road to Vannes to Loqueltas where we like to pick blackberries whenever we happen to be here in the summertime. We took pictures of some handsome stone  houses along the way. On the way back towards home, we learned about Alfred Groos (1886-1964, left) who was an aviation pioneer and flew his plane on the very first airport in Brittany located in Larmor-Baden.
