Ars-en-Ré won her heart yet again! She discovered a thriving market selling products from sea and land. Shops were open on 26th December. She had walked along the sea wall and dunes into town and enjoyed Breton Far and Jasmine tea for a late breakfast lunch at La Tour de Senechal with the church opposite.
On Christmas Eve this was her first view of the sea when she crossed the road from her hotel. The building is a douanier, also used by fishermen. The sea wall acts as protection against the Atlantic forces. Beneath the tide are 'les écluses". Further along this coast the sea wall is being reinforced.. a long task!
