Le Bretagne πŸ‡«πŸ‡·

Brittany is picturesque.

The month of May is great with all its long bank holiday weekends. We were on the road again with our van. Perfect weekend for a trip to France. 

First overnight stop was in the Champagne.

Could there be anything more beautiful than waking up in the vineyards of the Champagne? I don’t think so!

Charlie enjoyed her morning walk, despite the rainy weather. And who cares anyway, we were in the champagne ☺️

Bonjour, Champagne β˜•οΈ πŸ₯
The lighthouse in the vineyard πŸ‡

Moving on, all the way to the French west coast. Le Bretagne or Brittany which is tucked away in the northwest corner of the country. Far far away from anything.

Van life 🚐
Rain or shine – we loved having out at the coast.

We arrived, parked and literally stayed with our feet in the water. Well, only literally. The water was bloody cold. lol. 

Best park for night spot πŸ₯°
Falling asleep & waking up to the sound of the waves 🌊
Waking up to this sea view 😍

Brittany in May: hail, rain showers, sun, wind – we had it all. There’s only wrong clothes, right? We never moved camping chairs, tables & food faster than this weekend β˜”οΈ

Good that our friend had rented a mobile home including heat and a terrace with a roof, almost rain proof. We escaped with our BBQ to her place 😎

We tried… set up the table by the sea… and moved it again β˜”οΈ
It’s the season πŸ₯° fresh shrimps from the sea 🌊
Siesta in Brittany means wrapped in blankets.

We had also blue sky & sunshine moments, as we escaped to a world of charm!

This trip kind of turned into a lighthouse trip. 

CΓ΄te de Granit Rose πŸ₯°

We walked along the coastal paths of the CΓ΄te de Granit Rose (pink Granite Coast). Sooooo pink & beautiful.

Pink granite rocks. Wow!
Lighthouse love 🫢🏻
Another one 😍

Spring time.

Unspoilt, blue and coastal. Beautiful.
Endless stunning beaches.
Hanging out at the beach bar.
Brittany’s coastline is dramatic, with cliffs, dunes, lighthouses, and endless ocean views.

Exploring the coast makes hungry. It’s BBQ time.

What a lovely big piece of steak.
The French way: first aperitif. Always πŸ₯°
Pre-celebrating the birthday girls πŸ₯‚

O la la.
Red peppers & artichokes.
I had to share the plate with the others 😎
Best for last: dessert πŸ₯°
Sunset beach walk (walking off those calories).
A beautiful day is ending.

Good night πŸŒ™
Sleeping. Snoring. Happy. Finally starting to like van life 🐢

Merci for hosting us 😘😘😘

We loved our coastal camping weekend in Brittany. It’s a pity it is soooo far away from almost everything.

On the way home again. Au revoir πŸ‘‹
