Waves. Waves. More waves. I arrived in surfers paradise. Or the French Basque Coast.
It’s absolutely gorgeous here! Stunning beaches along the way. Always a little breeze. Charming seaside towns. Hip boutiques. Layback surfer vibes. Amazing fresh seafood. The smell of ocean & sun cream. The sound of waves. Beautiful lighthouses. The rainy forecast turned into a couple of clouds only but mostly sunshine & blue sky – I am a lucky girl.
Route de Bordeaux or somewhere between Cognac & Bordeaux – doesn’t this sound delicious?
Route de Atlantique Sud all the way to the French Basque Coast.
Spanish flair in France.
Fruits de Mer.
Layback surfer vibes.
La Grande dune du Pilat – as far as the eye can see: Europe’s highest sand dune (114 m high and 3 km long) offering breathtaking views over the bay & pine forests inland. When climbing up you could easily be mistaken for hiking across the desert.
Aimlessly strolls through the beautiful seafront towns & villages, enjoying lovely meals overlooking the ocean. La France, je t‘aime.
While I have been „galavanting around France“ as hubby says, he’s been working hard on his recovery and making fantastic progress. I cannot wait to see him walking again.
Traveling single wasn’t so bad after all. In fact I enjoyed it a lot and met lots of nice people along the way. And the Germans are everywhere. Lol. Greeting from their van or helping to translate the menu.
Au revoir Atlantique coast. I already can’t wait to come back & spend more summers here in the future – with hubby on board.
Now on the way back to Paris where I will meet my god child. Yay!
