In Dinard town

We didn't spend a lot of time in the town of Dinard, but we had a couple of meals there and did some touristy shopping.   The location is picturesque, being surrounded by water, and the cliffs set off the stone-built houses with charm.

We were particularly impressed by the presence of several Thai restaurants, and the beachside café/bar/restaurant that we visited had some Thai choices on the menu.  In the end we went for a cold take-away to reheat in the microwave back at the flat.  The little shop had a variety of dishes laid out under the counter and the lady spooned the mixture into tubs to take away.   It smelt wonderful.  There was a microwave oven in the shop and some places to sit at a counter, but I think the Covid scare caused them to shut down that service.   I wish I could remember what they were called.



I took the bike for a ride around the town, and I also went along a little path that goes around the promontory, just above the sea level.  Much of the town centre road space had been given over to restaurants so they could serve people outside and observe the social distancing rules.   It worked well, and the traffic flowed easily.  Might be a bit different in high season.
