This beautiful city is right next to the\u00a0atlantic ocean and the sun was kind enough to stay shining all day as we explored all the gems La Rochelle had to offer. Some found a Brocante, the French word for Flea Market, others jumped from cafe to shop looking around, and some enjoyed the beautiful architecture and history of this city. Frances visited the Bunker where the Germans kept submarines during the second world war. Paul went museum hopping and found that the numerous choices could keep him occupied for several more days!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_8173\" style=\"width: 810px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La_Rochelle-1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-8173\" class=\"size-large wp-image-8173\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La_Rochelle-1-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"Architecture in La Rochelle\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La_Rochelle-1-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La_Rochelle-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La_Rochelle-1-150x113.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.lagiraudiere.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/La_Rochelle-1-320x240.jpg 320w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-8173\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Architecture in La Rochelle<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Our lunch consisted of mussels, bread, pasta, salad, more mussels, and more bread!
