day nine (2): st-malo / dinard / dinan

Dinard and Dinan


After a short drive, we arrived in Dinard, and headed down to the main beach, with spectacular views of the old homes hugging both sides of the beach...






Some closer shots of these magnificent old homes...





Then we took a walk on a boardwalk around a point where we could get a better view of St-Malo...



...a a beached sailboat...



On our walk back, we passed another salt water pool (check out the raised road. And yes that's a single dwelling home to the right of the road)



The local Casino Barriere De Dinard (which overlooks the Beach)...



Then before heading back to Rennes, we stopped off in Dinan to visit Jacques and Gael. They just purchased a centuries old house and were beginning to renovate. I cannot wait to go back and visit again when it's done... the place will be spectacular!




After a couple drinks and a bite to eat we said our goodbyes and made our way back to Rennes.
