La Baule

Long walks under the pines,

followed by lengthy and hearty meals filled with fresh fish, seafood, a good Coteaux de Layon wine to drench it all, Armoricain cake, fresh summer fruits.

Fun at the beach in the Atlantic ocean waves,

napping and reading sessions,

the mandatory (delicious) all crêpes dinner doused with cider,

sleeping without earplugs because no city night noises to disturb the peace,

marvelling at the sight of classy boats, the architectures of the splendid late 19th century villas,

and above all cuddling my 10 month old baby nephew.   

I'm cherishing all these moments spent at La Baule and I can't wait to make another trip back !
