Brittany Canals Run Quiet Route Into 19th Century Life
Essie Pinsker and family spent seven days touring Brittany on a housekeeping boat with outboard motor, covering about 100 miles and passing 99 locks. They rented in Dinan for 346 dollars, staying in canal side hotels and using bicycles for countryside excursions as farm families operated locks and enjoyed tranquil, unchanged Europe along the waterways.
