It was a grey flight to Belle Ile

Belle Ile is the French version of the Scilly Islands, about 20 miles off the South Brittany coast near Quiberon and Vannes.

Unfortunately it was low cloud most of the way, between 700 and 800 feet, I went over a high tension electric cable with only 100 foot clearance, and had to climb up to get over one set of tall windmills on a hill.

Nearer the coast it cleared and by the time we got to La Belle Ile, it was blue skies and sunny.
