-- Fri., 10 Oct. 2014 - SPECIAL DAY IN BREST - Patrick & Keith explore more of
Brest - to look over and through security fences of Naval Base and to later in
afternoon to meet Monique to enter Base for the distinct honor of meeting its "Capitaine
de frégate"
(Commander) Bruno Nicol who gives us a personal tour of his base.
(Peg was ill this day and sadly had to stay back in the
gîte.)
This day was very full and memorable, but
difficult to present in our traditional photo album travel log. First, out
of respect for Naval security, we took no photos while being toured around
inside the huge Brest Naval Base. Earlier in the day we happened upon some
fascinating Brest street art. We decided to present most of the street art in a
separate album and focus here more on the Naval Base, including skirting around
some of the Base that reaches along the banks of the Penfeld River.Click a picture to see a larger view.
