There was something strange about getting on the Normandy Express in Portsmouth
Was it deja vu?
But yes this fast cat was built in Tasmania Australia and used to cross Bass Strait
It was an omen of positive things to come.
First stop was beautiful Mont St Michel at the northern part of Brittany.
The beautiful coast and farm land around the northern coast
On the west coast
The sunsets
The little coves
And in July it’s mussel season so fresh and sweet
South of Brest there is Camaret sur Mer an historic fishing town
The maritime city still a working port and welcoming to tourists
With beautiful beaches and great motorcycling roads near by.
Bet really it’s the little ports of Brittany that catch my eye.
Rye which is a seaside town on the East Sussex, Kent borderA town with a long history of pirates, fishing, trade, and defence of the realm
The towns has beautiful tudor building with the top of the hill dominate by the church and old castle
The view from the church tower over looks the old castle and the Rother River that leads down to Rye HarbourThe hinterland offers scenic riding
And winneries
Breweries
And traditional pubs and beer gardens
Making sure you dont get thirsty or hungry.
