Here comes the rain again

 Did I use that one already? Anyway, it was a nice morning so we took the bus in to town. We got in a bit of culcha in the Museum of Fine Arts. 

This was cool. A cat's mummy was scanned, digitised, 3-D printed then encased in resin. All the bones are visible, though the poor thing's skull is somewhere else.

I'm really getting involved in my art

As is J. Her eyes follow you around a room apparently.

Of course we did a bit of wandering before we sat down for lunch.

Municipal baths which were in Art Deco style. Apparently the inside is quite worth a look, but they are closed until 1st Sept.

Just chillin'

More Art Deco

Lunch for me was roast chicken, mashed sweet potato, red cabbage and a creamy thyme sauce. J had something else.

By the time lunch was over the rain had come. We did wander further but Rennes rang with cries of Far Canal! as my jandals slipped on the cobblestones like they were ice. I had to revert to bare feet for a spell which is always classy. Rather that than a broken bone though!

Opera House

There's some pretty shonky building going on here. Maybe they all sat in the cafe for a few hours after the first floor was finished then got started on the upper floors? I'd love to know who got it wrong first.

Just a bit of rain

The cathedral ceiling. Very ornate in a baroque style.

Whole sections of Rennes have been declared as obligatory mask wearing zones, and it was pretty well followed. Enough to be noticeable anyway.

Tonight our Vodafone internet will run out - a week before the reset date. However, we are prepared! We bought 20Gb of French internet so we'll flick over to that tomorrow and everything should be fine. Famous last words? Watch this blog...
