Being bears we really appreciated the small jar of French honey. As it was raining outside we had every reason to linger over breakfast and get refills of coffee and chocolate from our charming hostess, while telling her how much we'd enjoyed her restaurant recommendation of the previous night.
After a short stroll along the beach, we decided to treat the wet day as a shopping day. We decided to make City Europe our shopping venue as there is so much choice. Before lunch, we concentrated on wine buying which we took very seriously. We had hoped to have a photo of us loading our rather substantial supplies, onto the conveyor belt, but unfortunately the camera batteries died at the critical moment. This was probably for the best, as you might have been shocked at the sight.
After the morning's shop it was time for a real treat, lunch at the marvellous Flunch. This is a fantastic restaurant and simply excellent value as you can pile your plate as high as you like with vegetables and carbohydrates.
It's the perfect lunch for a piranha, such as Yorkie (sorry Yorkie, we shouldn't tease and we all admire your healthy appetite).
It was Gilbert who proposed pudding, as he simply couldn't resist the opportunity to tuck into a genuine French crepe. We watched them made in front of us. Gilbert, of course, had to have the first one and he chose to have his with chocolate sauce.
It tasted a lot better than it looked!
After lunch, it was back to Carrefour for more (non alcoholic) shopping. Once the Bearmobile was full, we decided it was time to stop and started the journey back to Norfolk. We were all feeling very satisfied.
Lots of love, George, Yorkie, Gilbert, Moose, Chelmer & Rocco xxx
