Day 5: Hi, this is Chip. Yesterday we visited the Dune de Pyla in Arcachon, which is near Bordeaux. We arrived in the rain, but we were determined it wouldn't stop us. It eventually stopped raining on the way up the Dune and the sun came shining through the clouds. But, in the distance we could see other storm clouds heading our way. We took some pictures and went wading in the Atlantic Ocean which is down the other side of the Dune. The water was very cold, but it was fun. Some of us went searching for shells and found some very interesting things. We ate lunch right there on the beach and then...it started raining and hailing. We decided to head back and so started the long ascent/descent to the car. By the time we got back most of us were soaked and sand covered. All in all, we had a great time and will never forget the experience.
