He came into my life in a sad moment and he has been magical, I like to tell you a bit about my boy Rex,our dog, part II !!! Hope you enjoy it as I.

I, believe or not heard about this train ride many years ago but always in my road warrior trails never taken it until now, It was a memorable trip as it allows our dog Rex to come along and he love it !! We went from the Gare d’Auray train station which was my initial train station when on business duties on an old train ride call the Tire Bouchon or Corkscrew slow train ride of 43 minutes to the Gare de Guiberon train station, Along the way it had stops in Belz-Ploemel , Plouharnel, Les Sables Blancs, Penthiévre, L’Isthme, Kerhostin, Saint Pierre Quiberon and Quiberon, terminus, A wonderful ride we will remember forever, and sure will try again,

The Tire Bouchon train ride is only available on certain dates in June, and September, Also, from June 29th to July 3rd and Monday August 31st, We took the earliest out 12h08 and returning 17h16 on June 20th 2026,

My dear late wife Martine was very enthusiastic once the decision taken, and was the first one to go and buy him a bed ,and ball toys etc. Unfortunately, for us, my Martine could only enjoyed Rex, our borador dog for 19 days before she went into the hospital and finally passed away on April 30th 2018 19h from pancreatic cancer. We will missed her tremendously, and no words can describe my and the boys pain. However, we have Rex. We love him very much, and he is very active and well behave. I have my three young men to help me out doing everything with me. Rex is a borador, that is pure mix Border Collier and Labrador Retriever taken from a cattle/milk farm nearby in Moustoir Ac. Already 8 years 7 months old and 31 kg or about 68 lbs,

I am a lover of travels to Europe , Americas , Africa and Asia as well ,who like to share my experiences of the last 53 years with the world, visiting so far 81 countries; living in 6, working in 5, and Citizen of 4, speaking fluently 4 languages. I can deal with sports especially football/soccer and love music, arts, wine collector/drinker, and go out to restaurants, and just visit the world. My background comes all the way from Candelaria and Pajara in Tenerife, Spain where my grandparents came from ;not knowing each other then, to Punta Brava, west of Havana, Cuba. There , my parents born in Cuba met and later on I was born there too. 100% guanche (annexed Tenerife to Spain on April 10 ,1496). I left Cuba as many have to Madrid, Spain where I lived for 4 years. Then, move to Perth Amboy ,New Jersey USA (living there 13 yrs) ; where I completed high school, became a US Citizen, learned to drive a car, and learned English. Afterward, went to the university in Florida, ERAU, and upon graduation decided to moved there to Ormond by the Sea, near Daytona Beach, finally moving North Miami, then Hialeah, then another moved to Silver Lakes division in Miramar, Broward county, Florida; in Florida I lived a total of 18 years. Finally , moved to France in 2003 ,Versailles call me for its royalty, and working in Paris was great. It was time to seek frontiers again and moved to Brech near Auray, Morbihan in Brittany , and later move to not too far Pluvigner. Total so far in France has been 20 years, and counting. Moving average a home every 5.5 years hopefully this will be my last. Cheers All rights reserved.
