More of La Roche-Bernard

I love this picture. I got really lucky taking this one, with a nice combination of lighting and subject. This is a boat on the River Vilaine, taken from the riverside path that runs along the docks. Go straight down that river, and only a few turns away one will pop out into the Atlantic.


Once one turns from the river back up into town, there is a bit of an uphill hike! La Roche is really hilly, very much a three-dimensional city, unlike so many of the lowland "flat" villages spread out around here.

Here also is a glance back at the harbor, with a view down the river to the big suspended bridge that connects us to the rest of Brittany. And finally, here's a little "Hello" from our travel guide!
