Day 6 Biscarosse

A So-roast coffee in the sunshine with my book whilst the others surfaces was a cracking start to a great day.

The children went to the shop and spoke French to order breakfast… they are really challenging themselves which I never thought I’d see.

We headed to the lake which is about 500m from our camp. It was blissful…. the children trying to catch fish with their hands and handstand competitions.

Back from the lake we decided to have a late lunch… all our favourite things… oysters, cheese, prawns etc, some wine and the children trying new things and generally being funny!

A few hours of chilling before the pool for some water park action and a late paddle board. I feel like finally I’ve found my confidence on the paddle board and could keep up with the rest of them…. a thunder shower was threatening so a quick exit from the lake was in order.

Simple dinner for the kids and some picky bits for stew and I round off a perfect holiday day.

Did I mention how lush the showers are here?

Day 5 -la rochelle to Biscarosse

We woke up to the signs that a heavy downpour was imminent! We hurried the children up and got tents packed and van loaded… and it didn’t rain!!

Stews got a bad knee and so after our long ride down the coast was down to me! We stopped into the big supermarket for wine (our fave was on offer 😂😂) peanuts and some nice pastries… and made our way down the road.

There were some pretty interesting road conditions to contend with but we made it!!

I can’t tell you how hot it was!! The traffic was kind to us, and with a few stops for lunch and main supplies on Lidl we arrived in one piece!

We got to the campsite and the reception was impressive! Everything about the site is clean and nice. Defo on my recommend list especially for those people that go to one please for a couple of weeks.

After the drive the ice machine was cranked up to full and I had some wine, we all went to the pool and chilled out for the evening, with some good food and great company.
