Saint-Malo . . . Porte Saint-Vincent by Beausoleil
We were visiting Brittany for a week and wanted to revisit Saint-Malo so on a sunny morning we drove northeast to the city. We parked near the ferry port, entered through Porte Dinan and found a nice restaurant for lunch before walking through the Old Town section. It couldn't have been a more perfect Fall day. We followed this by a ride on the Petit Train and the trip ended at Porte Saint-Vincent where we walked back through town to Porte de Dinan and retrieved our car.

Centre international du vitrail (Stained Glass Museum) - Chartres by Beausoleil
We've visited Chartres many times but this was our first visit to the stained glass museum. I'm not sure why unless it was time constraint that kept us from it before. It's right across from the Cathedral so an easy walk. We both paint so enjoy art and stained glass is magnificent art and often last longer than any other medium. This is an international organization to preserve older stained glass and promote the creation of modern stained glass. They do exhibitions, workshops and all sorts of recovery efforts. They also exhibit modern stained glass.

Castle Howard - the Walled Garden by Beausoleil
Castle Howard has been used in quite a few films and television dramas including "'Lady L" with Sophia Loren in 1965 and "Barry Lyndon" in 1975, "Brideshead Revisited" in 1981 and 2008, the BBC's "Death Comes to Pemberley" in 2013, and recently the television series 'Victoria." There is a room with "Brideshead Revisited" memorabilia that is interesting. There are lakes and gardens, a wonderful garden center, many nice walks, a farm market and lovely fountains. When we were there, the fountains were turned off at three o'clock PM so try to get your photos before then.

Gates outside Sizergh Castle by Beausoleil
There are guided tours for 1 GBP each and then you can return and explore on your own or you can explore only on your own. We took the tour and felt it was a GBP well spent as our guide was excellent. We had lunch and then returned to look through the castle at our leisure which was also fun since we had taken the tour earlier and had more time to look at things in the afternoon.

Stable Mews with a view across the valley by Beausoleil
Lynton, at the top of the cliff, is more like a real town and much less like a tourist stop. There are also great views from many spots here. We walked all over and then visited the small but very nice museum before taking the Cliff Railway back to Lynmouth and our car.
