A Quick Trip to the Coast

One of the benefits of where I live is my super-close proximity to the western coast of France.  On a train, I can get there in about 30 minutes to an hour and a half, depending on how classy of an establishment I want to visit.  So my roommate, Natalie, and I chose to take a drive to Le Croisic and Guerande.

Le Croisic
Hey, look! It's me!

Poor little guy!

 We stopped for a fabulous lunch at this petite creperie because it was just too cute!  We were about 10 feet from the woman making everyone's lunch. She probably thought we were hilarious/really creepy because we stared at her for pretty much the entire time we were there.  I tried to look away, but she was just such a master of galettes and crepes!



So much Christmas!

Creeping on my new favorite chef

And then we walked around and did silly things... 




I couldn't have asked for a better roommate!
After we had our fill of crepes and the Bay of Biscay, we made our way to Guerande: the fortified city, and home of delicious salt!

Fortification.
Really we just spent our time in Guerande looking through cute little shops, and buying souvenirs. And then we found the wall of pigs:



It took so much self control to not buy all of them!

Great day, great food, great cities!

Lovesies,
Angie
