First, let's start with the picture of today's sunrise~too bad, it's a cloudy morning, it's 0830h and yet it's not really bright, because it rained yesterday night~
 the journey begins! today's mission is to go get tickets for our medical check-up in Poitiers, a 2hour train ride from La Rochelle.. the train station Gare SNCF is actually not as far as we thought it would be, and so i treat today as a short day trip, instead of just going to get tickets. Here are some pictures taken as we walked towards the station



a platform that slashes water, family bring their kids here to play, skates and cycle

The Aquarium, that i visited 3 weeks ago.
 On our way to the station, we have to pass-by a garden, and we had a little fun time taking photos here~ LOL
Posing XD
A colorful playground, just what i needed! XD


Even the seats are colorful

 Couldn't miss this chance! Photos!XD


Yeah! Peace v^.^v




There is an age limit and i'm eligible~ hahahaha

after walking over, we'll reach the station!

 Yup~ this is the station, doesn't look like one, but it is a train station. Beautiful building~

i was actually once here, that is when i first arrived in La Rochelle, on the  1st of January, but everything was so new and confusing for me then and i can't remember.

Inside the station

Lucky we reached the station in time, if we would have taken more time to play in the garden, we would be drenched in rain water~ the timing for the rain was just in time~ XD


Posing in-front of the station~ ^.^
 The weather became sunny when we finish buying our tickets! Lucky us muahaha, then we walked to Centre Ville, to buy stamps that cost me58euro~ super expensive~ ARGH
 

Some picture taken along my way to the tabac stall in Centre Ville




 I like the 'feel' of this bread stall, it give a very vintage wooden vibe to it ~
and the little girl standing there is super duper cute!

This is the very famous Cave de la Guinette

along the way, we bought a maccaron each, 0.90 cents each

 

It isn't that nice because it's being renovated, at the moment, i don't know what building is this.


This is the post office, a very very very big building!
 Time to head back, beautiful magnificent sea-view on my way back... Port with lots of ships!




 

Wat a way to promote huh~


This i bought this pie in the morning market, some delicious tasting Almond flavour pie, too bad i forgot the name of it ><
 I think the pie about is a little too costly, 1,50euro for one small little pie? Although it's delicious, it shouldn't be that expensive. And ya, when we were walking past a stall selling preserved fruits, the man offered us preserved strawberry which is quite delicious~! ^.^
Subway for lunch.
That's the end of my short day trip, and i bought a pair of shoes as well ~ hiak!
