AUGUST 2008

Steve and I were both quite busy this month but managed to have a few days away camping at the beginning of the month to the Atlantic coast where we thought we would have a surfing lesson, wow! Hard work, we will probably hire a board some time if the weather conditions were good but won’t be taking it up seriously. At the end of the month Fiona arrived for her holiday, she flew from Edinburgh to Toulouse for the first time and found the flight quick and easy.

We went camping for 3 nights on the Atlantic coast just a few miles north of Hossegor & Cap Breton, we explored further up the coast and went to Léon on recommendation and loved it there, there was a large lake with water sports available, we hired a 3 man canoe and spent an hour exploring the lake. There are easy cycle paths all over the area, we couldn’t believe the number of people on bikes. The beach is only about 10 mins away, so you have the best of both worlds. We will definitely by going back there.

We had to return to Bagneres for the arrival of guests we were expecting for 5 nights.
