Hi Choupette,

We cruised with Rog (Playtime) both years in our B37 which is almost identical to yours. I did write up last years cruise in the mag. which I guess you have seen. Can’t add much except Vannes accepted a booking which we needed as we drove all the way to Calais to exchange Domino (dog) for Harry (grand daughter). Anything with more beam than the 37 doesn’t seem to be allowed on the finger berths. Our grand daughter, aged 9 at the time, loved the trip out of Vannes as she counted over 50 cars just one side of the lifting bridge (actually twisting bridge) which had to wait for us (and lots of others) to exit. Your kids will love it. We left our boats in Port La Foret for several weeks, this was fine and again they accepted a booking. Good beeches at Port La Foret, Benodet, Kerneval, Port Haliguen, Trebeurden and more. The first year we went to Port Louis and loved it. It was closed for development last year but is probably worth a visit in addition to Kerneval. I am sure if the weather is half decent and you have done enuff miles when you get to the Benodet area you will be ‘well happy’. And finally the first year we left the boats in La Rochelle and the journey home seemed long and a bit of a delivery, not a holiday. Last year we returned part of the way to Port La Foret before leaving our boats and the journey home was much better as we ‘rounded’ the corner quickly. In addition as we had crossed directly to L’Aberwrac’h on the way south we were not retracing our steps along the north coast and through the Channel Islands. Have a great holiday, I’ll look forward to reading about it.
