Holiday day 10 - Il de Re(st)

Despite our ideas of driving and camping elsewhere we decided to just rest and be lazy. Pretty crap sleep last night and camping as a full sightseeing holiday can take its toll so feet up and reading/blogging for most of the morning. After fixing a puncture we cycled north towards Les Portes which along the way was busy again with cycle traffic. I was actually glad to have the bell to get slower bikers out the way.
Ended up on a good beach called Plage du Gros Jonc - wading through the shallow sea felt like walking in salad with the seaweed around my feet. Back at camp we cooked and packed the tent away ready for a quick getaway with the plan to see Les Machines at Nantes.

If you don't want to know what's in the new live show then you'd best not read this as it will spoil the surprise. However if you want to know a summary of how it went then I'll say now, the performance was slightly worrying with only a week to go. There's a lot more mini-sketches and no real story compared to the previous tour. There's some great gags, some surprises but if it wasn't for their natural talent and personality the show would be slightly disappointing. Hopefully they'll put in some practice, improve the sketches that didn't quite work and maybe even come up with some new ideas. So, if you really don't want to know what happens in the show stop reading now, you have been warned. Mighty Boo...
