Thread: Souvenirs de Bretagne

Back to work this morning after 3 weeks of vacation...

Last Thursday, we came back from a 2-week trip to France visiting the mother-in-law in the St-Malo region up in Bretagne. We spent most of the time at the beach and the boy (21 month-old) had the time of his life.
Of course the plane rides weren't so much fun. On the way there, the boy slept on us for the first 2-3 hours, so far so good; but the rest of the 6 hours turned into a nightmare including 2-3 puke-sprees on us (to be fair, it was our own fault... giving him apple juice and yogurt at the same time for breakfast without any solids...). Karma paid back on the return flight by giving us a spare seat, so he had some space to play around.

Obviously, I could not come back from France empty-handed so I had a couple orders waiting for me even before we arrived:



1x Martin de Candre, Fougère. I barely touched the one I ordered earlier this year, but this was a no-brainer considering the savings on shipping and custom fees.
2x Le Père Lucien, Original. Never tried it, but I figured I'd get 2 while over there.
3x MWF. Also never tried it, but it was on sale and even with the VAT, it was cheaper then the pre-tax price over here...
Tadé Soapstone bowl.
Bluebeards Revenge shavette, I've been wanting to try a shavette for a while... Also, I didn't bring any razor on the trip, but the Habs kept on surviving and I therefore had to keep the Playoff Beard.

As if that wasn't enough to provide years of luxurious lather, right before I left the office for this vacation I received another package:



D.R.Harris Arlington, Windsor, and Marlborough
Razorock Hard Soap, Lime
Razorock Soap for sensitive skin, Neroli
Razorock Baby Blue Aftershave
Razorock Evil Eye Lime Aftershave Lotion Splash.
Razorock Evil Eye Lime Aftershave Wax
Vitos Colonia Aftershave

Choosing fragrances is going to be hard for a while I think... too much choice!

Cheers.

Nice Work!

Very nice indeed!!!

That's a very productive vacation! Some of my favs in that bunch. DRH Windsor an Arlington. Also own the blue beards shavette. Pretty good quality for the price. Works well too.
