Brittany is the western tip of France, the Celtic area. It was one of the last areas to be incorporated into modern France. For many years Breton heritage was suppressed, but there is now a strong movement to preserve their unique culture. The Breton flag is seen everywhere and the Breton language is making a comeback.

We spent a week in Dinan, taking side trips to various areas of Brittany.One of our favorite aspects of Breton culture was the food. Crêpes and sparkling cider were always available and delicious. They do wonderful things with seafood. The scenery was beautiful, the people friendly, but the weather was a bit gray. We had two days of solid rain, the only ones on the whole trip.
