Off again!

After a few days of pleasant, dry sunniness, the overwhelming heat, humidity and rain has returned.  Paris has been particularly dreary lately.  I think it's true what they say, Paris is probably best in the spring.  Luckily, Nick and I are hopping on a train tomorrow morning, headed for a week's stay in Brittany.  We tracked down a nice looking B&B, somewhat centrally located for good access of a variety of different things and we'll be making that our home base.  We'll rent a car to get around from there.  

Since the trip to Paris overtook the original plans for backpacking through the Olympics, this week in the forgotten corner of France will be our honeymoon.  We're looking forward to authentic buckwheat crepes, locally brewed cider, long drizzly hikes along sea cliffs and mountains and a little bit of quiet.  If it's half of what I'm hoping, it will be a stellar time.  Anyway, not sure what kind of internet access we will have for the rest of the week, so if you don't hear from anybody for a while, that's why.

Au revoir!
