St Martin de Re, is "the capital" of the Isle of Rhé. It's also one of the finest examples of military architecture of the late 17 th century. The port and the Citadel have been fortified by VAUBAN in 1681.

The city is very pleasant to discover but preferably, bicycle, on foot, you can also go around the walls, the port until Penitentiary.
Saint Martin de Re on the road to the penal colony. From 1852, when put into place the transportation to bagnes overseas, 1938, date of the last arrivals for French Guiana, approximately 100 000 were sentenced to New Caledonia and especially to Guyana.


St Martin de Re, is now also very popular for its shops and its beautiful harbour genuine and always lively.

So here is a foretaste of what will visit our friend Hans GreenBaron just spend a few days in our region at the end of this week (I promise that this will not hard labour but the trek that I would reserve ;OD )

Coucou Corinne :)

Joli petit coin en effet ... j'adore les petits ports au coeur des villes comme ça ... j'aime leur ambiance. Belle photo !
Passe un bon moment avec Hansie, transmets-lui un bisou de ma part (la normande bis ;o) et je suis certaine qu'avec toi, il adorera la France :)
Bisous et bon week-end ma douce amie.
Marylou ;)

Bonjour Corinne,
Une jolie vue sur ce port! Le soleil semblait taper fort, mais tu as su fort bien gérer la lumière. Très belle scène où les bateaux attendent sagement de prendre la mer.
Meilleures salutations à Hans, le chanceux d'avoir une charmante guide du cru, juste pour lui!
Bravo! Annie

Great shot, Corinne !
I like the depth you created through the composition.
Remembers me at our visit (years ago) to Ile d'Oleron en La Rochelle.
I like the small harbours at the French Alantic coast.
Thx for your kind comment on my picture of Paris.

Greet "Spruitje" aka Greenbaron from his old school pal !
Nice that he is visiting you !

Lovely regards,
Mas
