The weather report for the next 7 days : rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain, rain.The wet weather gear came in handy for our walk around the coast from our hotel. The lighthouse is small with a red painted top and and although misty rain was falling, it was an enjoyable walk around the coast. Small villages near here have stone houses with thatched roofs and we walked through their deserted streets. These places, although only a few kilometres from the touristy Pont Aven, have a lot to offer and we are glad we came here for a couple of days to rest. On our walk around the coast below the light, I stepped off the path onto green, lichen covered rocks and went down like a sack of local mussels. It made me think how easy it is for people to fall over cliffs. Lighthouses do warn of danger.
“The use of travelling is to regulate imagination by reality, and instead of thinking how things may be, to see them as they are.” – Samuel Johnson
