Helpfulness
There is only one alimentary shop in 'Le Guerno'
and it reflects the size of the village.
It has a little bit of everything.
We went there in the moring to buy our breakfast.
Perfect crispy bread...the owner seems to
be in this shop for the last 5 decades and he even got some post cards some drop death
ugly souvenirs , fresh meat....
What to buy:
Most superb is the croissant filled with
almonds cream.... heavy , but delicious.
Rare to eat them better then here.

Is bad weather...rain , storms ,
the sky is pledging down on you.
Nothing you can do there then.
Fun day out away.....
Unique Suggestions:
Taking an umbrella is a bad sollution -
the animals don't like rain and
you can forget about the good pictures...
Fun Alternatives: Burning a candle in one or another
cathedral might just be helpfull... lol
