After a train and bus trip, via an exceptionally brief stop in Rennes, we headed to Mont St Michel.
Mont St Michel is essentially, a massive rock, with a classic monastery and church built on the rock, surrounded by sand/quicksand and the ocean.
It’s a truly stunning sight to see for the first time and as always, we took loads and loads of photos.
We stayed overnight there, but there was not heaps to do, so we set off early the next day to take a really good look around the monastery and whilst we didn’t expect heaps, we were very pleasantly surprised by the magnificent architecture, which was surprisingly detailed and ornate.
Take away the crowds who milled around the masses of crappy tourist shops, and Mont St Michel was pretty cool.
It did take a while for us to get back to Rennes because the bus timetables were absolutely crap, but we got to Rennes in the end, so all was good!
