The last leg

This is the last leg of our 2016 holiday in France and we are heading to a site near the port of Roscoff.
It's been a nice sunny day for the most part so we drove via Quimper,  where the rivers Odet and Steir meet before they flow into the Atlantic. It had an historic centre reminiscent of Stratford-upon-Avon with the addition of a huge gothic cathedral. We had a look round both and a quick lunch before pressing on North. 

The tourist office lady suggested we stop by the village of Locronan - which we did. A really pretty village with photo opportunity in all directions well worth the time. We bought some biscuits and pressed on, crossing Finistere to the north coast. After weeks of coastal scenery it was like driving across Devon, trees and hedges, moors and reservoirs, until we reached our destination at St Pol de Leon. We have a nice sloping pitch with sea views to a small island for the last two nights. It's cloudy again now and we even had some rain when we drove through the edge of a storm as we hit the coast.
