Jersey, UK to Saint Malo, France

A taxi took us to the ferry port, which was quite close to the hotel.
Although a little windy, the ferry ride was uneventful and passed quickly.

We opted to walk from the ferry terminal in Saint Malo to our hotel, which is located within the walls of the old city. We'd taken screen shots of the directions to aid our navigation and were able to drag our cases along the cobbled streets into the old city.

The receptionist at the hotel informed us we had been upgraded to their other hotel along the street. We were too early to check in, so left our bags and went off to explore.

The first task was to locate the building of the novel "All the Light We Cannot See", so Kathy could take photos for the Book Club. 

From there we walked up onto the city wall to enjoy the views across the sea and the city. Wow! This place is just gorgeous! Wow!
We stopped off at a sidewalk cafe to sample a crepe and poisson soup, then found our new hotel to check in.

The room is fabulous , with glorious views across the water and beyond. Absolutely magnificent! We are only here for one night, but if you're travelling this way be sure to stay at least two or three nights!
