Land and Sea

By avoiding the motorway Thursday, our drive took us thru the forests of the Landes to our destination on the West Coast... Basque Country.

We intended to stay in Biarritz but it was crazy busy and decided to drive a bit further south and found our little piece of heaven in Bidart.

Stay tuned for more postcards from the West Coast as we discover and learn about a new area of France with it's fresh sea air and plenty of seafood, different architecture and culture.







This is an example of the typical architecture in the area, so different from the stone buildings in the Lot Valley.
