Well been on a couple of boat rides since Saujon, crossed from Royan to Montalivet across the Griande. then down the Atlantic coast through Hourtin, Lacanal, Corhot Ocean and then across the Arcachon basin on a little ferry to Arcachon. The scenary is much the same day after day. Stright roads and pine trees, or, endless beaches. The ferry to Acachon was fun, Incase of emergency, you had to follow the arrows, which were just painted on the floor and pointed to the back of the boat! Went up the Dune Pyla, the largest dune in Europe. 60 million cubic meters of sand. realy was quite amazing. Done 850 k and just about on target. Entered the Londe today. some of the houses in the old part of Acachon look like they belong to the Adams family.
Pics: The road got a bit boring, so we thought we'd go on the beach! the ferry to Arcachon, one for Laura me on dune Pyla, dune Pyla, Arcachon and Al and Eric on a dune

How ya travellin? Been checking in on your Captain's Log - impressed to hear you're nearly a thousand k on the way (are you now about 5 foot 2"?!! Great beach by the look of it - just a shade sunnier than Seaton!!
May the force be with you Mr B.
