Going out in style

Well here we are, the 6th and final night of our vacation, everything changes tomorrow afternoon when we arrive in Angers. On this last day, we saw some great cathedrals and castles, incredible! Also, we shopped around at a few of the local shops, including the chain FNAC, basically a French Best Buy on fumes, pretty good store. Also, we hit up the local wine bar again, I actually had a glass of wine this time, it was really good. The owner, in this picture, was really nice to us. We went to this place a few times so he would give us little samples and talk to us about stuff, really cool. I really hope to have these kinds of interactions with the locals in Angers, it's really fun and interesting.

Another highlight was eating a white and milk chocolate golf ball from a chocolate shop, pretty good stuff.

Dinner was at a pretty good restaurant, we had rotisserie chicken with a nice salad. Our breakfast today was from the hotel, they gave us mini baguettes, croissants, and other things along with hot chocolate for a nice start to the day. It's been a good few days in Nantes, but reality (and school) will start setting in tomorrow. I'll let you know how it is when I'm settled in Angers!
