A market in Lorient, a walk and some Crêpes

Today was market day in Lorient so we went to visit both the indoor and outdoor markets.  There was lots of good produce, dairy products, meat and fish and we bought quite a few things including some delicious brochettes (skewer kebabs).

We brought these back to our apartment and cooked them for some lunch with some delicious local asparagus, also bought in the markets.

In the afternoon we did a walk around Melrand and surrounding areas.  The weather was great and the scenery very lovely.  The walk was very well marked out so we didn’t get lost at all.

We walked back into Melrand and enjoyed some pancakes from the creperie, first a savoury and then a sweet one, washed down with some good dark local beer made of buckwheat.  We went to a local bar for a couple more beers before making our way back to the apartment and having a good fire in the woodburner there.
