Jean 'playing' with his new toy.
Up, up & away!

View over the town, the church tower in good view

Over the campsite to the 'plan d'eau' where people learn sailing skills

Unusual view of the house
Look how green it is in Autumn/Winter!
The new jetty over the dunes

The campsite might be short of campers but there's plenty of activity going on out-of-season, with Monique & Rémy busy in the office and Jean & Pascal busy in the grounds.

This year Jean has hired a 'cherry picker' so that he can safely prune the upper branches of the many trees on the site. Making the most of the best weather we've had for ages we spied Jean working hard, and couldn't resist going to see more closely. We didn't hesitate when offered a trip into the tree tops for a new view of La Tranche, and hope you like the results.

The adventure? After enjoying the views Jean set the machine in motion for us to descend. Suddenly the alarm sounded and the cherry picker froze - we were trapped mid-air! Luckily Pascal was on hand to use the controls below to get us back to terra firma. Otherwise we might still be there!

Manc lass says that these pics are amazing - glad to see Jean & Pascal hard at work preparing the site for my comfort! Hope I've done this right.
