Kate-Me Says: It was a Sunday when we were in Vannes, and since the Tourism Office was closed, we simply spent a couple of hours wandering right around inside the walled old town and the gardens just outside of it. A most pleasant walk indeed, and since it was Mother's Day, there weren't...

Kate-Me Says: We chose train as our method of transport into and out of Vannes - but a word of warning, there are a lot of greves (strikes) and staff at the train stations are unlikely to suggest an alternative (if there is one) unless you ask them directly. We ended up getting to Vannes...
