The next day, we were invited to Veronique’s family’s vacation home about an hour north of Vannes. There we had another feast, although us girls skipped the main course served straight from the whole roasted pig. For entertainment, they had Curt kneel on the ground and placed a sheet over his head with a traditional Bretagne striped shirt sewed onto it. One of his nephews then stood behind him and placed his arms through the sleeves. It was hilarious as the hands tried to connect with the mouth to feed Curt yogurt, then brush his teeth.

We took a long walk past corn fields and many pastures to the coast, which was beautiful. After lunch, Jimmy played
bocce with a bunch of the older guests. That evening we switched hotels to the very nice
Castel Braz, along the river in picturesque Pont-Aven.
