Family Visit - Le Croisic

My brother Ron and his lovely wife Donna ventured a long way from central Florida and arrived in Nantes Friday, the 8th.  I picked them up at the airport about 11:00a.m. and we've been going since.  In addition to the family "fix," all the sight-seeing is good for me.  They've about walked me down to a nub...but the weight is dropping and that's good.

Saturday morning we head for one of my favorite places, Le Croisic.

 Tide's out.

























Trying to tell time...en Francais.

 In the park several highly contested patenque games.
(I would say bocce ball , but that would be redundant.  Bocce is Italian for ball.)





Whenever all have "bowled," the team closest to the small ball gets a point for each ball closer than the nearest competitor.












The old "Hotel de Ville."





A short ride and we are in La Baule waiting on a sunset.





And it did.
