The sign is a bit faded by the sun but it is in an ideal position, at the midpoint of the rows and rows of the 3,000 Neolithic megaliths at Carnac in northern France. Just about the time one may be flagging and ready for pancakes, drinks and ice cream. Chez Céline was a small hut with outdoor seating. Order at the window, the staff were a full pelt over hot stoves. We had ice cream. Delicious, definitely home made by an artisan.
The drawing recreates the old pictures of the 19th century when the locals liked to have their photograph taken sat on top of the larger stones.
