Plougastel

Plougastel church











Love those severe lines...











Plougastel calvaire









Crown of thorns











Adoration of the donkeys











One the three facades









Shroud of Turin depiction











Obligatory young woman going to Hell














































































We spent the night of the 28th at the aire at the Brest marina. It seemed like a very yuppie place, with cool maritime stores (I bought a jar of Maritime Coop fish soup (Vicki calls it "poison soup") and seaweed beer), until the club across the parking lot closed at 1:30AM, and then there was a lot of drunken laughing and singing and car doors slamming, etc. The next day we found the Kerloas menhir, and the golf course, and then visited the church at Plougastel; another day, another calvaire.
