The internet stopped working this morning, it didn't say I had run out of data, it said there was an error. The receipt did look like the code was only valid for one week but I had been told it was open ended. When we went over to the shop for fresh bread, I popped in to reception to ask about the internet. I was given a new code but this didn't work either and I had to go back for another one. In the end it worked and I think I had the full five hours to use again.
A slightly better day weather-wise and it was well into the afternoon before we ventured out.
Dot had read about, Mornac-sur-Seudre a, des Plus Beaux villages de France (the Most Beautiful Villages of France), so we set off to find it along the river Seudre.
From their Website - "Mornac-sur-Seudre is an old fishing and commercial port which today focuses more on oyster farming and the salt produced by its marshes. As you wander through the village, which is a classic example of Charente coastal villages, you will discover its white painted houses with their green or blue shutters that are often hidden by hollyhocks."
Well we would have done if we could have found a parking place, it was mad, people everywhere, it was even hard just driving through the place. I forgot it was a Sunday. So we continued on to La Tremblade, which is at the end of a channel, off the river Seudre. We drove through and along the channel (Le Chenal de La Grève) toward the river. There were fishermen's huts and fish restaurants all along the channel and we stopped to view and take photos along the way.
At the end, where the channel comes to the river, we stopped for a walk around, before we drove back to the site.
