Another Goodbye and Pirate Hijinks (Sunday 9.29.2013)

Sunday morning was a blurry wake up and a run to Rennes to take Michael and Donna to the TGV station for their trip back to Paris.  We are disappointed that they could only stay a few days, but apparently Paris is pretty amazing.  We had a ton of fun and laughs and we will miss them around the house.

Kim and Ryan took off to tour Fort Le Latte and St. Malo while we were in Rennes.  By all accounts they had a splendid time at Le Latte and took the time for a roadside diversion to a tumble down castle ruin along the way.

St Malo, the city of Corsairs is a perfect chance for Ryan to get his pirate on for the afternoon.  There was much wall climbing, ship stealing, museum rummaging, etc.  Soon after their return, the French Govt in conjunction with the US Consulate in Rennes dropped by to politely ask that "Pirate Man"(their words, not mine) not come back anytime soon and to announce in a major press conference that the wearing of "do-rags" is now punishable by 5 years in the Foreign Legion.

Merde...

P.S.  Pics will be posted if and when "Pirate Man" emails them to me.
