25th Sept

I arrived at 3pm and looked at my map. I hadn’t really planned where to go up until then and i was shocked to see how far Brittany is from Dieppe and also that it is driving back on myself and up towards the Cornish coast.  I therefore decided to head towards Vendee which is a bit further south.

I set off at about 4.20pm and drove for a couple of hours before pulling off the motorway.  I pulled into a place called Sees, which is a small village that happens to have a huge cathedral totally out of keeping with the village, which you can see in the photo.  I went for a run for an hour and then had a beer.  I then cooked up the lovely soup that Jo had made for me before I left.  I found a street to park in that I didn’t know was directly outside the school.  When I woke up, there was only my van in the street and I was surrounded by hundreds of noisy students, which was a shock.  My first night in my van is now under my belt . .
