We made it!!! We are back in St Malo after six days of great biking. Today was one of our shorter rides but lots of up and down. Our first stop was at Pointe du Grouin, at the north-eastern tip of Brittany. The views were gorgeous, in all directions. The coastline was all cliffs like what we picture Normandy will be like. We could also see England across the channel.
We stopped about halfway at a beach at the Pointe des Grandes Nez. The beach was over a kilometer long, and we counted about twelve people total. The kids enjoyed a short break before we kept moving.
Our third stop was at the north end of St Malo at the Rochers Sculptés. This is a bluff where a minister who suffered some type of stroke that rendered him deaf and mute, spent the last fifteen years of his life sculpting rocks. It was very interesting and amazing to see the amount of effort that was put into his work!
About ten minutes after we left there we rolled into the hotel where it all started. Yay!!! We did it! What an amazing experience!
After cleaning up we headed to the beach for a few hours and did some body surfing and relaxing on the beach. It was a very nice way to unwind and relax the muscles after a long trip. The kids sure enjoyed the down time.
We’ve cleaned up again and are going to head to dinner as soon as Amanda and I finish this bottle of rosé we are sharing. We are now on to the next phase of the trip and hope that you keep tagging along with us on our big adventure.
