Sunday 21 September

The first day of my round Brittany walk and it has been wonderful weather all day . I stayed my first night at Bon Accueil in St Marcan, as it was impossible to get accommodation in Mont St Michel where my walk commences.  However, the very pleasant owner kindly gave me a lift to my starting point and I shall be staying with him again tonight.  

I walked up to the top of Mont St Michel in brilliant sunshine and started my walk at about 10.30am.  Came back down and walked along the river around the edge of the sea wall - got myself a bit lost really walking round the Polders!  Not the easiest area to get your bearings, but I sorted myself out without too much difficulty.  Eventually, in the middle of the afternoon I came off the polders and on to what is called the Balcon de la Baie, walking through wooded country and along the ridge back to St Marcan.

I got here at 4.00pm and have covered a total mileage of 27k today.  Tomorrow I am heading off to Cancale which I think will provide some more interesting coastline.
