We had a very late start this morning in Treguier. Eventually (it was afternoon by now) we took a walk up the hill into town passing this statue.
We went into the Cathedral.
They had guide leaflets in many languages including Welsh.
It's a very impressive building.
The roof is very fine.
Here are the portraits of most of the Cathedral's previous Bishops.
This is the grave of Saint Ives.
We decided we'd seen enough of Treguier so we took this last picture of the outside of the Cathedral before walking back down the hill to our parking place.
We walked down through the woods to the aire passing this enormous rhubarb type plant.
After stopping at the supermarket in Treguier to service the van and buy a few supplies we moved on the short distance to the Chateau la Roche Jagu. By now the weather had become very, very hot!
We went into the air conditioned ground floor of the Chateau to cool off for a while.
We walked around the grounds. There are fine views to the nearby river.
Here's the horse bathing area!
There are a few ponds but they seem to have a severe duckweed problem.
We passed by the Palmerie.
We had to walk up a lot of very steep paths to get back to the Chateau and eventually our van in the parking area.
After a while we managed to recover from extreme heat exhaustion enough to move on to the aire de camping cars at La Roche-Darrien where we've parked for the night. It costs 4 euros a night to stay here. This includes electricity! You're supposed to put the money in an envelope and post it through the letter box at the Mairie!
Today we travelled 19 miles (31 kilometres). We are at N48.74700 W3.25972
