Leaving Soulac-sur-Mer
On the way back to the ship the land on both sides of the road was fields.
We were too far up the peninsula for vineyards it seems. We passed a series of artificial of ponds.
Back onboard
We passed more old bunkers and could see an old pier away in the distance.
There were no security checks after leaving the shuttle, so we just walked across the concrete apron to the ship.
We went through Sapphire’s security checks in the Atrium. Standing by the x-ray scanner were three armed French customs officers – not sure what they were looking for though!
From the buffet I had a late lunch of a curry and then an apple dessert with lots of custard – both were delicious.
Leaving Le Verdon
The sun was on our balcony and I settled down with my book and watched the comings and goings below on the quayside.
At 5 pm the shuttle buses were joined by returning excursion coaches and below became very busy.
