    Raining again this morning so we decided against cycling. Instead, we drove to Les Portes-en-Ré and did a 10k walk around the coast. Just managed to sneak into Les Huitres do Trousse Chemise within La Reserve Naturelle Nationale de Lilleau des Niges - they had closed (it is Sunday) but we only wanted a beer so it was OK. Lovely walk and interesting to see the way that the sea water is managed in the marshes around here.

    Visited the Phare des Baleines on the way back but it was very busy and touristy so didn't stay long.
