Grand Marée, glorious sunshine, only 3 weeks until Calla is here, solar eclipse on my birthday and more photos of Rome

April has been full of sunshine and the tourists have returned to celebrate Easter in our tiny hamlet of Kerdruc.  The bistro near us is preparing to open soon and the temperatures are rising!  We are thrilled that Calla will be here in 3 weeks and will spend 3 weeks with us.  We'll see some more of Loire Valley chateaux and more of Brittany with her.  The Grand Marée was spectacular with people walking across the Aven River near Port Manec at  the lowest tide of the century.  Also, John has shared some of his photos of Rome, so there are some new ones below.
