La Rochelle

My visit to La Rochelle was part of a Uni course I've been doing in French, so it was kind of half holiday, half study visit. The university wanted us to learn as much of the language as possible while we were there, so we had to spend our mornings in a language school - hardly ideal, but we made up for it in the afternoons with plenty of sun, sand and Belgian beer.

Le Vieux Port of La Rochelle, built to control entry into the harbour. Unfortunately the €8 admission fee (per tower!) helped control my entry into them.

Leffe - the beer of kings.
