We decided to set off early yesterday and head for the coast, to the town of Royan at the mouth of the Gironde Estuary.
To give you a taste of the area, here is a selection of photos taken throughout what was a fantastic day..
Colin viewing the boat moorings
A near birds eye view over the harbour
Le Grand Roue in the background
and again, in the foreground
Fishing nets to the ready suspended from these platforms
A beautiful beach for a swim!
Smart promenades
and attractive approaches to the seafront
Le Phare de la Coubre
And YES! We did go for a swim...
What a wonderful place on a perfect day! Such happy memories....
