(crispy crusty crunch) the weekend postcards

For a couple of days... that's a lot of gas and kilometres!
Thank gawd, in less than 2 weeks, it will be the HUGE summer break: 3 long, full weeks in Brittany. Can't wait!

We arrived very early on Saturday morning, and before joining the family house, we made a stop by the hobbit house.

Wunnerful surprise there: a garden full of strawberries, red/white currants and gooseberries turned to be our breakfast. Fantastic for the city girl I am.
(memo to self: gotta check I can still call meself "girl", despite dusty age!)

And then we could check the plumber's works. All the connections are done, we just have to put the cherry on the cake now (making the bathroom, kitchen, toilets)

The plumber worked perfectly, doing exactly what we asked, and dealing with heavy stuff (like installing the connections via the rock on which the house stands...!)

Then we celebrated my mama's birthday for the rest of the day and recovered on Sunday before coming back around here. The weekend was great, a bit exhausting with so many people in the house.

Oh, we had rain, huh, and it was cold most of the time (I worry for the holidays!), but we got sunshine too!
Just la Bretagne, quoi!

(oh and the sheep have gone to the hair dresser! they all look so young-ish now! ...hm, except Cesar with his huge horns! Soon the horns will start to turn around and around on themselves, very beautiful!
A proud Cesar, but who does not impress the 3 girls :P)
