🇫🇷 Grand Tour de l'Ouest de la France - Jour 5 - 03 mars 2016

De Saint-Malo à Yffiniac en passant par St-Lunaire - Fort-La Latte et le Cap Fréhel

C'est sous une météo mitigée que la visite de Saint-Malo débuta avec le musée maritime et ensuite les remparts (photo 1). Après un bon repas de midi, nous nous enfonçons de plus en plus dans la Bretagne et toujours en suivant le plus possible la côte, nous passons par Saint-Lunaire pour atteindre la pointe du décollé (Photo 2). Les vues sont grandioses et la météo capricieuse est vite oubliée devant la beauté sauvage des lieux visités.

Poursuivant notre route, nous atteignons notre prochaine étape et visite : le Fort La Latte (photo 3) et non loin de là, pour terminer la journée, le cap Fréhel et son phare, car oui, j'aime aussi les phares! 🙂 Là, le vent et la pluie sont plus fort mais qu'importe...

Après cette journée bien remplie, ce sera à Yffiniac que nous passerons la nuit avant de poursuivre le lendemain jusqu'au point le plus à l'ouest pour ce tour : Ploumanac'h.

A suivre...

🇬🇧 From Saint-Malo to Yffiniac via St-Lunaire - Fort-La Latte and Cap Fréhel

A mixed weather to visit Saint-Malo, we started with the maritime museum and thereafter we made the tour of the remparts (photo 1). After a good lunch, our way is going deeper and deeper into Brittany following as much as possible the coast. First stop "La pointe du Décollé" near St-Lunaire (Photo 2). The views are grandiose and the capricious weather is quickly forgotten in front of the wild beauty of the places visited.

Continuing our route, we reach our next stop and visit: Fort La Latte (photo 3) and not far from there, to end the day, the Cap Fréhel and its lighthouse, because yes, I also like lighthouses! 🙂 There, the wind and rain are stronger but that doesn't matter...

We did overnight in Yffiniac before going the next day to the westernmost point for this tour: Ploumanac'h.

To be continued...

Congregation of the Holy Spirit

Officially known as: the Congregation of the Holy Spirit under the protection of the Immaculate Heart of the Virgin Mary. Or in Latin: Congregatio Beatissimae Virginis Mariae.

This is a religious congregation for men in the Catholic Church. Members are known as Holy Ghost Fathers. Or in continental Europe, & the Anglosphere, as Spiritans. Members use the postnominals: CSSp. Postnominals are letters placed after a person’s name to signify academic degrees, professional qualifications, awards, military decorations, or honorific titles (like PhD).

The order began in Paris on Pentecost Sunday, 1703. Claude Poullart des Places was a wealthy young lawyer who abandoned his social standing to become a priest. He wanted to form a religious institute for young men who wanted to become priests but were too poor to do so.

Unlike orders that focused on the elite, Claude was moved by the plight of “poor scholars.” HIs vision was a “proletariat” clergy. Priests assignments in hospitals, rural parishes, & overseas missions.

Claude was born on February 26, 1679 in the capital city of Brittany, France: Rennes. Claude was tutored at home before being enrolled at the age of 9-10 as a day student in the nearby Jesuit college of St. Thomas. Thus beginning his lifelong association with the Society of Jesus.

Graduating at 16, Claude studied at the University of Caen, Normandy. Before graduating at 22, with a Licentiate in Law from the Law School of Nantes. A licentiate in law is an individual holding an academic degree or professional certification. This is usually below a doctorate but above a bachelor’s, that authorizes them to practice law.

In 1701, Claude Poullart began his studies for the priesthood, as a boarder at the Jesuit College in Paris. His work grew quickly. The Order developed. However, Claude passed away at 29, or 31 depending on the source, of pleurisy after founding the order.

After the founder’s death, the order became fully organized. In 1765, the South American missions, in colonies such as China, Cambodia, Vietnam, Thailand (Siam), & India under the support of the Paris Foreign missionaries arrived in Senegal, Africa.

Those in France served in various dioceses or alongside the de Montfont missionaries. This was due to the close friendship between Poullart & Louis de Montfont. The Order had trained 1,300 priests in the years leading up to 1792, when the seminary was suppressed by the French Revolution. The French Revolution saw the Spiritans have their property seized & many were executed or exiled to England, Italy, & Switzerland.

After the French Revolution only 1 member remained, James Bertout. He survived a series of hardships like being shipwrecked on his way to his destined mission in French Guiana, enslaved by the Moors, & a short stay in Senegal (where he had been sold to the English).

On his return to France, he reestablished the Order & continued its work. But he found it VERY hard to recover sufficiently from the effects caused by the Revolution.

In 1841/1842, Francis Liberman founded the Society of the Holy Heart of Mary (a.k.a. Society of the Immaculate Heart of Mary) This society is/was dedicated to serve mainly the emancipated black slaves in the French colonies. Particularly in Africa & the Caribbean.

In 1848, the Holy See asked Liberman to merge his relatively new society with the struggling Congregation of the Holy Spirit. Lieberman was made the 1st Superior General of the united groups. This effectively saving the Spiritan name & legacy.

Liberman’s approach to missionary work was revolutionary from the time. He instructed his missionaries not to “Europeanize” the people they served. Besides the missions in Africa, the society started missions in Mauritius, Reunion, & the Rodriguez Islands. In the Western Hemisphere, they had missions in Trinidad, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Haiti, & Amazonia.

The Spiritans arrived in the United States in 1972, fleeing the Kulturkampf (persecution of Catholics) in Germany. They found a home in industrial heartlands, particularly Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

The Order is known in the United States for founding Duquesne University in 1878. This university was originally established to provide an education to the kids of poor immigrants working in the steel mills. It grew into a major research institution. The university’s motto (Spiritus est qui vivificat, “It is the Spirit who gives life”) reflects the order’s charism.

By the early 20th century the organization into the following provinces: France, Ireland, Portugal, United States of America, & Germany.

On December 31, 1961, 20 Spiritans: 19 Belgians & 1 Dutch man, were unalived in Kongolo (in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo) by government troops during the Katanga Secession Rebellion.

In Rome, on April 24, 1979, Pope John Paul II presided over the beautification ceremony for Jacques-Desire Laval. The 1st member of the Spiritans to be honored.

Today, there are about 3,000 Spiritans serving in over 60 countries. They’re often associated with schools & chaplaincy, & missionary work.

Ein Blick auf den Phare de l’île Vierge den wir an diesem Tag leider nicht besichtigen konnten, weil wir den Gezeiten gemäß zu spät gewesen sind. Bei Flut kann man mit einem kleinen Boot auf die Île Vierge gebracht werden und damit in weiterer Folge auch auf den Leuchtturm gelangen. Das haben wir uns später dann nicht entgehen lassen.

Ein Blick auf la Plage de Ménez Ham an der Côte des Légendes. Ménez Ham ist ein wenig so das Burgenland der Bretonen. Das dort befindliche Museum gibt spannende Einblicke in die Geschichte der Gegend.

Auch an der Côte des Légendes findet man Steinrobben; hier sogar zwei, die auf einer kleinen Insel im türkis-grünem Ärmelkanal sonnenbaden.

We walked through Goulven Bay at low tide to see the beautiful dunes of Keremma. They stretch for miles, and I didn’t expect the sand to be so light in colour. As fine as flour.

Wir gingen bei Ebbe durch die Bucht von Goulven, um uns die schönen Dünen von Keremma anzusehen. Diese ziehen sich kilometerweit hinweg und einen so hellen Sand habe ich mir nicht erwartet. Fein wie Mehl. Wunderschön!

Vintage is trendy these days, so I wanted to catch the zeitgeist with this art inspired by Dolly Kitten Marion (on IG)

The castle, the car and obviously the model, everything is perfect in the photo, I hope I manage to render it in my version
