Stupid advertisers in Vannes, France

The photo below is an counter-example of smart advertising.

You have a well-preserved medieval castle, one of the charms of the city, and you ruin it with a huge poster showing the behind of a 60 year old woman bathing in the sea.

WTF? The search for unexpected and sensational has went too far. Too much is too much. Don't you think?

Hotel review - Escale Oceania, Vannes, Bretagne, France

The room was clean, and the breakfast was decent (for French standards).

The hotel was in renovation and one could still smell the paint in the room. Moreover, the workers started at 7 A.M, although the receptionist told us the works will start at 8 A.M.

Trip to Vannes, Bretagne, France - part 1

Vannes is a perfect mix of medieval city centre, a nice port and the remains of a castle and old fortifications.
