Yesterday I decided to spend some time on the bike. The weather was perfect - or maybe a little too warm. Here is the ride:
I took quite a few pictures on the way, too many to put them all in just one post. I will probably organize it in 2 or 3 posts.
Part I: leaving la Baule.
One really nice thing here is that the avenue along the ocean is flat and has a large bike lane - in green here.
The tide was low when I left, and a lot of people are taking advantage of that to go fishing (or picking up shellfish like clams). All the dark shapes over there are people, not birds...
At the end of the beach, a little harbor: it's Le Pouliguen. This place is bringing me back in time. This is where my dad had his sailboat at the beginning. We spent A LOT of vacation just here. Or trying to sail out of the harbor, not always very successfully... good times...
The carousel... The little sister would (really) scream (very loud) to get on it.
And when the tide is low, nobody gets in or out.
On the other side of the harbor are some of the nicest mansions.
Riding through the western streets of Le Pouliguen is very pleasant, with nice buildings,
and lilac bushes everywhere filling the area with their strong fragrances...
