We decided to travel back during the day and stay overnight in Brittany, an hour or so from Roscoff. Though travelling at night has its advantages: little or no traffic, easy to sleep when it’s not your turn to drive, and above all, you don't lose a day by spending it in the car. The downside is that the French countryside isn't very interesting at 4:30am. We headed north to Bordeaux, the only section that was plagued by traffic, as Bordeaux is where the Paris road brings people from the northwest into the southwest area. Then via Nantes and Vannes until we arrived in southern Brittany and headed for the town of Carnac, situated at the start of the Quiberon Peninsula. This is a lovely area, and we ate in a small seafood restaurant overlooking the ocean before turning in. The next day we headed west towards Quimper, before turning once again north and heading up over the hills to Morlaix, and then finally to Roscoff to catch the ferry back home to Plymouth. The central area of Brittany is a lovely place, an area of highlands that reminds me of Dartmoor back home in Devon, England. There are many small towns and villages that we drove through, and we stopped in Pleyben to stretch our legs and sample some local dark beer, which I might add was very good, and rather strong!
