I've been there.

Nice, but unspectacular.

That's a fairly nice painting.

Dukasaur did you ride the cable car?

Now that you mention it. I don't know if I have been in any bars in France. I went to a couple of Pubs in England on my first trip but none on the second.

I suspect trying to negotiate the drink selections with my limited French language skills might be frustrating.

I was thinking about the one in France.

There's also Finisterre in Spain, which is where people doing pilgrimages along the north coast end up.

Brittany is nice but I don't know what to say about it tbh. You'd possibly be better off in the region around Marseilles, I feel like you could be more sure of good weather there. Or somewhere like Corsica or Sicily.
