St Gildas [[preprinted]]September WEDNESDAY, 3 1902.[[/preprinted]] This morning at about four I changed cars at Rennes for Vannes. Had a whole compartment to myself. One seat for my baggage as there were [[no? racks??]] Got to Vannes about 7.30. Told me automobile went at ten another at 9.30 and I would have lots of time to see the town. However I got back to station at 8.45 and the Auto had left. Took a horse & carraige and caught it at other side of town just as it was leaving Vannes is a charming little town but still I like to arrange to stay over night and not have it forced on me. Got to Sarzeau about 10.30 and changed to a carraige & reached St Gildas at about 11.05 Its fine, air is great nice old convent with cloisters chapel gardens, a little patch of trees, old stables and the ocean in sight on two sides. Cliffs, beach and rocky points. Good grub. Walked pretty much all over the place with Hall.
