We had the usual rest day after the Duo - we drove to Granville to amble gently about. In particular the citadel area and the old town were very attractive, with the interesting wartime additions of the concrete gun emplacements that formed part of the German "Atlantic Wall". Interestingly, it looked as though someone had had a go at chipping them apart but had given up. Over 65 years since they were installed, the many concrete structures left by the Germnas still look quite robust. We decided not to go to the aquarium, but wandered bak down to the habour where whe had an excellent lunch. I had an assiette de fruits de mer (whelks, winkles, oysters, crabs, langoustines, clams, etc) - while Carol had a salad nicoise and an excllent white fish (we think trigger fish) in a greenish spiruline sauce. Then back for a lazy afternoon back at the house.
