...we just returned from a much needed vacation- kind of a staycation actually since we just cruised up the coast, but it was so lovely! We were able to see parts of France that we have not yet seen. I fell in love with St.Emilion (and the wine is not too shabby either)- we'll definitely be going back there. And Il d'yeu was just the coolest. About 15 miles off the coast of France this little island (15 miles by 3 miles) had a lot to offer. With limited motor traffic the chosen mode of transport was by bike so we hoofed it around the island to the sites & beaches. The oysters were to die for & the unspoiled nature & miles of empty beach made me never want to live this little fisherman's island. The main port was lined with art galleries (which I loved of course) & lots of little cafe's, creperies, & wine bars. It reminded me of a combination of Wellfleet Mass- on the cape & Nantucket (but not so posh)....seriously a charming place! You must go! More pics to post soon...x mvg
...weekend getaways...yes, please! These are so drastically different, but honestly I'd take either! Happy Friday! {images via sfgirlbybay & pinterest} xx
