    The Dune du Pilat seems to be paraglider's paradise. You can see hundreds of them practising their sport along the dune.
    Of course their a couple of school (usually situated at the campsites) where you can take classes or just try a tandem flight (?).
    But just watching was also good fun!

     I do like a good Indian in France. It's so different from the UK version. Make a nice change from Frogs Legs and Snails too :)

     I had a really nice holiday with the family in this area. I took lots of photographs but they were all lost whilst they were being processed.

     Dune du Pilat seems the perfect place for a Bordeaux or three at sunset ;~)
