La Maison Douce Saint Martin de Re

Ok so I'm getting a bit behind in my blogs as I've arrived at my uni now and want to write about that. I am having a really good time and re-living being a fresher, which is kind of funny! I also have my laptop set up now - yay! So as a simple solution I'm going to tell you about the food I cooked by posting some photos of it ...

... the sights there.

Anyway, Ive just realised Im about to run out of internet time and I havent even discussed the food! Which was amazing by the way. Everyone will have to come round for some dinner parties when I get back so I can show off all the new recipes I've learnt. Anway, am going to leave you all hanging and leave describing the food I cooked til the next installment. Cruel? Yes, but that is just the way it will have to be. Sorry!

... Rouen is a pretty historically significant city, and is where Joan of Arc was sentenced to death and burnt at the stake (this is about the greatest level of historical detail I'm likely to manage on this blog by the way...sorry fact fans) In the afternoon we left Rouen again and headed West to Ouistreham on the Normandy coast. Our first camp was a great place just off the beach, but the weather kinda limited our exploration. We had an early night that night ...

We stayed 1 night in Paris with Olivier, after we spent 2 days in Rouze in Pyrenee. We finished 1st week of our vacation in Toulouse (trip by canal). Second week, we stayed in Talmont st.Hilaire in Francois´s parents.
Vendee is very very nice :-) !!!

Hello,
After a week in Angers, where we stayed taking some rest at our gran parents house, we aheaded to Les sables d"olonnes, where we are going to spend 2 weeks at the shore. Look forward to it. I have been there 2 years ago. Great place to built sand castle, my cousins are coming to visit me....it is going to be a great 2 weeks.
Enjoy the pictures

... space between the wheelie bins and the no parking signs beside the captinerie

We'd been on the road four hours instead of 40 minutes and covered 250km.
There are definite lessons to be learned from this:
1. Do not bother if you have a lazy lunchtime chat first and can't hope to arrive before 2 or 3pm.
2. Plan at least three sites first, especially in a barge on wheels, as you might not squeeze into the first couple of aires you find.

Judith died! How are we going to manage without her - there'll be rows in the cab. She must have been dropped when planning last night.

Found this campsite after a couple of tries - clean and lovely under the pines. Swam, sunbathed, etc. for three days.

Cycled to La Flotte and St Martin first day, then Dave took us cross-country the next - big mistake, got lost, no lunch.

... Bordeaux. La chance tourne vite ! Adieu La Rochelle (j'avais oublié de dire que c'était une très belle petite ville) (NDA : petite ? Elle fait quand même 172 000 habitants, après vérification). On se dirige vers la capitale du vin rouge, Bordeaux (NDA : désolé si je fais une erreur en prétendant ceci) ! Arrivés tous les trois vers 20 heures 15 devant la mairie, Ariane et moi on décide de se taper une pizza style américaine (fait changement, quand même...), et on ...

... town and noticed a few places selling beer on the streets. So Brian had a beer, and another, and another. He started to act goofy. I had no idea what was happening! I encouraged him to drink more! Finally after 5 or 6 we went back to the hotel. We made Brian go to sleep. Around 2:30 he vomited all over the bed and then in the bathtub. Wow. I realized I helped to cause this mess. Another friend ...
