Toussaint break, oh how you treated me well. I cannot believe it has already been two weeks since I left for la campagne (the country). With our luxurious amount of free time, my family brought me to their beach house in Carnac. Now, before I continue, I want to set you all straight. I say beach house, and you're probably thinking about a warm sun, lots of sand, bathing suits and fold-up chairs and swimming? No. Just, forget everything you've ever learned about the beach. Now, replace it with chilly winds, a crazy current, hail, rain, and a dark sky that the sun randomly chooses to peek out from.. That would be Carnac. The beach house was situated on a temporary beach - low tide, it was a beach, high tide, it was filled with boats and lots and lots of water. I could just sit all day, watching out the window, at the boats and the wind and the rain.
My entire family stayed at the beach house, plus Frédérique's sister and her family, and their mom. We were quite the crowd, the 15 of us. And each day, we'd take a walk, walking along the ocean through the brush and the trees, or the sand and the rocks. It was absolutely gorgeous, and that's all I have to say!
