It turned out to be a very fine day when we reached La Rochelle, a pretty sea-side holiday town by the Atlantic. We dropped off our backpacks at a souvenir shop, had morning coffee and croissant at a cafe near the curved habour and strolled around the town and visited its famous fortress towers. We had lunch at the covered market, tried a few of the local oysters and we spent most of the afternoon relaxing in the beach area where children took sailing classes and adults sunbathed. It was, indeed, a very relaxing day.
