Ok so on a cool damp rainy and gray day lol!! Welcome to Brittany in the Fall and wait for Winter. The streets are all for us locals and the places we love are open so much conversations and same old service. I was in Vannes today, you know, I told you, this is our capital city of the dept 56 Morbihan.
Rather than tell you all the wonderful things to do and see here as if this could be my 20th post on Vannes me think, not counted but so much said. You must come here! The French come here, 3rd most visited region and the most visited department. Then, some other Europeans come like the British ,and Germans especially. My American friends have come and love it and today heard there was one from Michigan walking around town lol! Need to get out of Pariis…And see my beautiful Morbihan! And wonderful Vannes!!!
