Carnac and the Quiberon Penninsula and Le Foot

Well, the World Cup started with a whimper over here. A poor performance against Uruguay left our French neighbours a little glum.

Watching Le Foot

Things did not look up after a French player strike after a particular striker questioned the parentage of the French coach. So our plans to follow the World Cup in France at various jolly venues were dashed. England deserved their early exit but being thrashed by Germany when watching in a cafe with 90% German supporters was a bit tough to swallow even after a few Kronenbergs. Players that would happily walk into any Fantasy League team were pretty hopeless. Rooney, Torres, Lampard etc. Only some Spanish and German players and Premier League failures like Forlan, The Prince and Dos Santos seem to come away with any credit.

Anyway, we dodged the rain showers in South Brittany for a week and had a great time on the bikes and walking the superb beaches. This is a lovely part of France and well worth a stop.

Carnac is Karnag in the local lingo so gives a great photo opportunity.

Not that I'm suggesting ... errhmm!
