🇫🇷 Dinard: Where Jet Lag Becomes Magic
As the host city for this year's G7 summit, the picturesque coastal town of Dinard in Brittany was the perfect starting point for my French adventure! This gem facing Saint-Malo across the bay exceeded all my expectations with its timeless charm. ✈️ The Long Journey Worth Every Minute Our trip began with an epic 21-hour voyage from Beijing: • Departed Capital Airport at dawn, crossing eight time zones • Arrived at 10pm local time (3am Beijing time) completely exhausted • But the magical twilight of a Breton summer evening instantly revived us 🌅 • The salty sea breeze carried the promise of unforgettable memories 🌅 When Jet Lag Becomes a Blessing Waking at 4am turned into my favorite travel accident: • Had the entire moonlit promenade to myself - just the sound of waves and seagulls • Ran barefoot along the water's edge like a child, collecting seashells at low tide • Discovered hidden Art Deco villas glowing in the first light • Friendly locals watering flowers waved from their pastel-colored balconies ⛵ Morning Magic by the Harbor As the town slowly woke up: • Fishermen prepared their boats for the day's catch • The morning market began setting up with fresh croissants and local cider • Sunlight danced on the hundreds of sailboats in the marina 🍽️ A Breakfast Worth Crossing Oceans For Our first proper French meal was everything we dreamed: • Towering stacks of buttery, flaky croissants still warm from the oven • Homemade jams featuring local berries we'd never tasted before • Rich hot chocolate so thick our spoons could stand upright • Planning our day while watching the tide roll out from our seaside table This magical morning proved that sometimes the best travel moments come when you're too excited to sleep! Dinard had already stolen our hearts, and we couldn't wait to explore more of its secrets. #PerfectFirstImpression #CoastalDreams #FrenchMorningMagic #JetLagWins
