After just a few days in rural France, I’m fully relaxed and caught up on sleep. There’s something about sea air that makes me feel calm. Not being constantly online makes a big difference too. We spent Tuesday afternoon at the nearby beach, Gwin Zegal (about 10 minutes walk). Then yesterday afternoon, my dad drove us to a different beach where we’ve been many times before. There are cafes and toilets there, so it’s easier to stay for longer. Despite lots of SPF50, I’ve still managed to catch the sun in a few places!
Yesterday morning, we had a quick walk around the local market, where I bought a pair of trousers and a colourful hat. Well, you have to support the local economy, don’t you? I wore this retro print co-ord for my stroll around the market, which I bought on a previous holiday in Madeira. I featured it back in May, when I wore it to work. On that occasion, I needed a cardigan, but not this time. Actually, it’s a few degrees cooler today, which I’m not complaining about. They really need some rain here, especially further south in Bordeaux where there’s a wildfire. In 2017 I ran a marathon in that area, through vineyards and the grounds of beautiful chateaux. I really hope they manage to extinguish the fire soon. There are so many wildfires across Europe, even in England. And some people still deny manmade climate change is happening!
