The tourists of Loix

Loix - Ile de Ré (France)

We were roaming about the desert little streets of the village of Loix, there was absolutely nothing, absolutely none, just little quiet white houses and a small church.
Suddenly this young couple appeared and asked in good English to Sergey if he could take a photo of them.
They spoke to each other in a kind of Nordic language, I think.
They seemed really happy to have a photo taken in front of nowhere.
Then they disappeared.
Inspired by their example Sergey decided to jump in front to the church.
You can see his performance.
Then we walked back to the water tower hoping to find another bus to go back to La Rochelle.
We didn’t see any other person.
After a short moment a small bus approached, I asked the driver if he was going to La Rochelle, he said he was.
I felt nearly like kissing him!
