Day 2: St Malo to Becherel – 31 miles (total 40 miles)

NEXT

Ceri: It was raining as we left the ferry, and we headed straight for our favourite cafe for coffee and croissants. Last year we hadn’t even noticed the road to the ancient part of St Malo could slide away, allowing for ships to pass. It was fascinating to watch. After our ceremonious coffee, Neil led us to the mini ferry port to take us to Dinard… back over the sliding bridge. We watched and waited again. Once there, we were told the port was back over THAT sliding bridge!!! 😂

The small ferry and soon we were cycling along D roads, old railway tracks converted into cycle routes, through pretty villages and along rivers and canals. The French do cycling so very well. 

From the start, Neil has been determined to get our St Jacques passports stamped. We forgot at St Malo …. must have been that sliding bridge!! So after lunch in the scenic ancient town of Dinan he headed off, passports in hand. Neil returned grinning…. mission accomplished, so on we rode to Becherel. This rural area is full of beautiful old towns and villages with ramparts and Becherel was no different.  We stayed in a 17th century converted weavers house and ate the most delicious meal to celebrate our 7th wedding anniversary. It was very romantic. It really was!
