Mornac

What a lovely cycle. We rode 5 and a bit miles out to Mornac sur Seudre today. What a treat - a little port and very lovely little street of a town.
A stunning little village, all based around the Oyster beds which form the local trade. Nowhere seemed to sell the oysters though. I am looking for a place where they will let me try one (being a bit of a food novice ). However this trip is all about 'new things' so I will give it all a go, but I don't wish to be faced with a whole platter of stuff. So that mission is still yet to be accomplished. However, back to the thread, Mornac was lovely. The kids cycled really well and completed the total cycling in an hour and a half (total round trip of 10.5 miles). 
So our last night on this site tonight; we are working on a plan to stay on the Ile D'Oleron on a vineyard for free, then backtrack up to La Rochelle as we skipped that bit out, and feel we shouldn't miss it. So we'll wait and see what happens in the morning!
