St Martin-en-Ré

Just look at the weather! We picked up Phil, Clare & Laura from La Rochelle airport and whisked them over the bridge to the Île de Ré, destination St Martin-en-Ré

Here we have the gang on the town walls...
...and checking on the harbour


The youngsters (& Tine) climbed to the top of the tower of the town's church for the fantastic views. Your faithful blogger stayed in the shade on terra firma!
Lunch? Galettes and a bowl of cider
And look who's next door - Tin Tin...
...and Captain Haddock's favourite expletive (Laura & Clare well disguised)!
 
Obviously you can't go to the St Marti-en-Ré without seeing the donkeys in pyjamas

Love reading your blog - spent lovely two weeks in August at La Tranche with many happy hours on 'your' beach with our French bulldog!
