Brittany and an atypical site
We spent two weeks in Brittany for rest and research.
The following field or site was interesting; The Valley of the Saints.
We had a recommendation to go, and the site was worth the trouble. The more interesting aspect was the more modern presentation of some of the saints.
There is the one that appears to ‘ give the finger’ , someone out of a 1970’s tv show, the winner of the World Cup in 1998?A Khardasian behind?
Good value.
New Year’s Day…..and on the other side now
I found this at the John Naughton blog and does seem apt as today is the proper day out of the EU.

Path of the gods
Amalfi coast walk towards Priano.
Holiday viewing
Sitting on the Amalfi coast and at the same time watching a stream of the last night of the Proms.
A little strange but so typical in our world now.
La Scala
Ballet at the the famous venue in Milan. A production of Giselle, a ballet I had not seen before.
We were in the “cheap seats ” again so HD to crane the neck to see some of the action.
The ballet is in two parts and the second was very beautiful in the way it portrayed the ‘after life’. The dancing was beautiful and the lead fantastic- though she seemed to know that! The music worked well.
A great night out for me and Shaz.
Duomo in Milan
We arrived by train this afternoon and walked from our pad to the centre of activity. Our first look at the square.
