Bordeaux, Paradise for Wine and Seafood Lovers - Beach and Sun

It was a very busy day for we had to rush to Cap Ferret after the chateau tour.

Seafood in form of quick meal, tuna salad sandwich. 

















After abut 50-min train ride, we arrived Arcachon, a famous resort town. Unlike common sand sculptures, these colored ones are more edgy.

















Wow, what a giant blue whale! Wait, it is only an installation.



















Actually, the final destination was Cap Ferret, where is about 30 minutes away from Arcachon by boat. An oyster farm near the pier. 

















Many Europeans love summer because the winter there can be terribly cold, and French is not an exception. Besides, it's said that tanned people is usually rich people in France. We took a 30-miniute walk to the beach to visit this beach along the Atlantic Ocean.






















The sandbank at the background is one of the largest in the world, even bigger than the one in Perth. The number of yachts illustrates it's an area where the rich loves.
 
















It's my first time to see fishing by a net at the pier.
