This is where my road trip in my tiny car ended (a Nissan Micra) on thursday night last week.La Baule is an ocean town, a resort mostly inhabited by upper class/ upper-middle class parisians in the summer.
The sand beach is one of the longest in Europe. 7km long.
The ocean front is filled with concrete buildings
During the off-season, the streets are quite empty...
This part of the town is called La Baule-les-pins, which means "La Baule-the pine-trees". Guess why.
Notice the local style of the roof here:
This is l'Allée Cavalière (The horse rider alley)The center part of the street is for horses only.
My mum's place is in La Baule-les-pins. But it's an appartment. Not too shabby, though, with a pleasantly big terrasse
Perfect to enjoy nice drinks
and dine looking at the sunset.
(still no ash cloud up there).

Roof you show in your post are typically not La Baule's roof style !
Thanks for your comment, Marc-Aurele. I wrote "local style of the roof" which very different from "la Baule's roof style". There are very few houses like this in La Baule. However this house looks typically like a house from Brière which is what I consider local. If you disagree, or if you would like to add informations, I will be happy to publish it here.
Sounds and looks great Claire. How was the beer?
tasty!
