Day #0 in St. Brieuc – The Trip There
[Photos taken on Saturday 08 July 2017, posted online on 29 October 2017. We’re all in the UK!]
For our summer vacation, we decided to follow some friends of ours to St. Brieuc in France. They were doing a home swap, but we opted to rent a home via airbnb.
We ended up flying to Rennes airport via Amsterdam, and all in all the trip went fine.
The biggest stress was when our friends (who’d already arrived in the area) notified us that all the grocery stores would be closed the following day, so we had to make an emergency stop at the supermarket, which delayed our arrival to the house. Our host graciously waited for us, so it all worked out in the end. (17 images total)

Keflavik airport was packed, as always during the early morning departures.
Emma, sub-happy.
The others. Finnur had to make sure to sit down frequently to spare his broken collar bone.
Grímsvötn was the name of our plane.
Our layover was just over three hours, so we had plenty of time to eat and … uh, be bored.
The dining area at the Amsterdam airport was absolutely crammed with people, but managed to buy some sushi, and squeeze in by the kiddy corner. Thank goodness for the kiddie corner!
Anna inside a large a, looking spooky!
Bjarki on top of the large e in front of Anna’s a. We noticed the “no climbing on the letters”-sign a bit late.
Finnur post-painkillers.
Anna trying out the motion game. The t was the last large letter.
The second plane was tiny!
It only had rows A, D, and F!

Rennes airport is tiny. This is the only arrivals luggage carousel.
