Blois

Went for an early morning walk to check out Blois at sunrise (about 8am so not that early).
Bought the best bread sticks (still) at a little bakery round the corner from the hotel, then went back for more, they were only 0.75eu each with ham and cheese and they were warm!!
Headed back to Chambord, got an audi tour, interesting helical staircase but such a huge place and a lot of the rooms not used and others not as impressive as Chenonceau. Pity about the fog as the views from the top of the Chateau would have been great.
Then it was off on the big drive to Saint Malo on the coast. Again struggling to find the hostel, drove right past it (wish the book had told us the name of the complex!). 30.80 euro 3 bed dorm with private bathroom and breakfast included.
