Julie and I took a little road trip

And we saw little hidden treasures of France. I am going to let the pictures and captions do the story telling.

 From Biarritz to Bayonne. It adorable little city is very proud of its Basque roots.

On our way for Bayonne to Arcachon was stopped by Europe's largest sand dune, to say it was odd and amazing are both understatements

 

Ready to climb?

 

 Up we go...

 All most there...

 The view!

 

AMAZING French Hippie Van

Arcachon and a very happy Julie, in her element of west coast France

We then continued our trip to Il-de-Re, a Julie find of course.

 

Off we go on our biking adventure to Phare des Baleines (a lighthouse)

 

Oyster farms, Il-de-Re produces almost 10,000 kilos (I think...) of oyseters each year, yummy!

 

 Crazy tides

 

 

 These are a few of my favorite things.... wine and Pepe

 

Le Phare, so overrated considering it took us forever and just a few wrong turns to get there.

 Look Mom...Donkeys! (I may have been on the verge of exhaustion at this point)
