2nd March. Nantes








Did Nantes today, nice city, a bit of a mix of ultra modern with ye olde still in places. Some lovely buildings, cathedrals and a castle type thing, complete with moat. The queen of Frances’ house, back in the day apparently.
Didn’t do anything terribly exciting, could do with another couple of days here to see the touristy sites but can’t have everything!
We tried to go shopping this morning but of course the supermarkets are shut!! Now, in a big city, you would think they would be open??? I guess they like their Sundays!
Have just had diner. Sandra took a notion for Chinese tonight, so I took the tram in to town to find a take away while she bathed and fed Katie.. Beautiful food!! Hit the spot..
Good tram system, they actually come when they say they will, clean and cheap too!
Picture of Katie brushing her tooth!! (usual Sandra quality, apologies J )



Hi it’s Sandra here again. No dramas happened so we are nice and relaxed, for a change! Did Ian tell you….. No gas …..yes what did I say, they don’t have bottled Calor Gas here and their gas doesn’t fit our hose. Apparently it’s only France that don’t do our gas bottles, now had we been in Italy, no problem. Typical! Yesterday was cup a soup and sandwich for dinner, tonight it’s Chinese takeaway. But not to worry because (without any further disasters) we will be back in the UK on Thursday . Cornwall here we come. Oh just a little extra message to all those birthdays we are going to miss. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Ross (for Sunday) HAPPY BIRTHDAY Janice (for Tuesday) and HAPPY BIRTHDAY Diane (for Wednesday)…see u soon xxxx
