Came across a graveyard for tourist mini-trains.
There is a narrow gauge railway on the island.
Later in the day drove to the centre of the island and visited Monsieur Coulon so as to stock up on Vieux Pineau and Cognac d'Abricot for the next 4 weeks.

Then north west to La Cotiniere for old time's sake.
 |
| La Cotiniere is a busy harbour |
 |
| Coffee plus book on Sartre. |
 |
| Many a Mass have I attended here. |
 |
| Magnificent stained glass windows inside. |
