Bizarre Bride

This is a late entry to the scarecrow competition.  The story is that it is Nelly the Belgian's actual wedding dress.  Nobody knows if it was an unhappy marriage or not.  Maybe the husband-to-be failed to show up?  

Giant Haystack

They've built the most gigantic haystack outside the villae.  It is the biggest I have ever seen anywhere. 

Biscarrosse Beach

After Bordeaux, we drove down to Biscarrose, which is on the Atlantic Ocean  so there are always huge waves.  When we got there, it was farr too windy to risk going in the water.  Great weather for kite-surfing though!  Shortly after this photo, it started to rain very heavily so we drove back to Montjoi.

The Morroir d'eau (water mirror) in the town centre.  The water comes up as a fine  mist

             

Having trouble with the captions.  Last photo is from the roof of the hotel.  There is a bar/ disco with trees and sand and even a jacuzzi.  Prices were frightening:  88 euros for the cheapest bottle of champagne.
