Château de la Hunaudaye
Forgot that yesterday Bill arranged to stay in Rosnual from Monday 10th until Sunday 16th. Trevor will be camping at La Grande Metairie, but there will be no vacancies there. Decided to go to Lamballe nothing much there, a very pretty house which is the tourist office. We saw the 2 museums, housed in the same house. We went to the Château de la Hunaudaye, good ruined castle.
