Nantes Brest Canal


Yesterday started bright but soon turned grey and damp. Had lunch (beans tuna and bread) in  the shelter of a tree. Things brightened in the afternoon as we found a Voie Vert running South. Lovely flat tarmaced surface took us to Ploermel where we raided the Leclerc for steak, stickies and wine.
Back onto the cycleway past a group of older French who looked at us as if we were from another planet, or maybe we are starting to smell a bit.
Picked up the Nantes Brest canal cyclepath, again a lovely surface but no route maps. Came to Roc St Andre with a lovely campsite on the edge of the canal with vintage caravans and tree houses to rent. We'll stay here for couple of nights. Another 58kms done and slightly head of target.
Cycling back to Ploermel in a bit to shop and explore.
