Ooh La La Rochelle

Today we arrived in La Rochelle, France. I have been practising my French on duolingo so I was excited to arrive in France.
We enjoyed having a stroll around the marina and a mooch around the arcade streets in the old town.

The architecture is really unusual with arches being on almost every street, so pretty with the light coloured stone across the city too. There was also a traditional market with all sorts of unusual delicacie.

We then found a lovely walk along the city walls which led to the beac and coast path. We did go on another very long walk as Tom wanted to visit the rugby stadium. Around 28,000 steps today!

We thought then we would stop for lunch but most places had stopped serving food! So we did some cafe hopping and had some tasty treats.

My reading and understanding French is certainly better than my speaking but I did manage to buy a fridge magnet and order some macarons in french, yippee !

It was lovely and warm today and all in all a very nice day.

Definitely was in need of a nap before the evening activities- comedy show, quiz (5/10 tonight), dinner, chilled drinks and Abba party 🥳Læs mere
