LICKING GOOD

Langue de chien vaut le médecin

A dog's tongue is worth a doctor

 An old French dictum, and variations thereof, imply that a dog's saliva has healing

properties, which would explain in part why man's best friend is always on the spot to lick his wounds.

The family's Cavalier King Charles, above, is a case on point.

BETWEEN LAND AND SEA

La Ria d'Etel...entre terre et mer

A charming site is this body of water formed by an arm of the sea in the backcountry of the southern part of French Brittany's Morbihan. Above is a view of a small 11th-12th century Roman chapel

on the Ile de Saint Cado, dedicated to the fifth-century evangelist Welsh monk, Saint Cado, for whom the  island is named.
