As long as I am plunking, I think I will plunk some euros...

I had the great good fortune to visit Arcachon a few years ago on one of my little hops. It's only natural that I should want to spend some of my retirement in this beautiful little part of the world. What do you think? Will you come visit? Bring your running shoes and we will run along le Bassin, later we will have a salad and wine at an outdoor café. Oysters for dinner, then a meandering walk to look at the charming cottages. It's like a fairy tale...
