L'Ile D'Yeu sounds like L'Ile "Dieu"  or "God's Island."  This island might be described as a little slice of heaven;  it is a jewel off of the Vendeen coast.  Just a 45 minute ferry rideaway,  our group hopped onto bike and began our 27k trek around the rugged coast which resembles both the Vendeen and Breton coast lines.  In April,  the island is spilling over with verdure and yellow flowers.  We stopped at noon for a icnic alongside a medieval castle and continued to Port de la Meule and a lower beach,  admiring small churches,  boats,  crosses,  dolmens,  and menhirs along the way.  A group of French girls set the soundtrack to their favorite songs in the basket of their bike,  and "il y avait de l'ambiance"  for the entire day.  We danced while riding our bikes,  laughed,  and felt the wind in our hair.  The students genuinely enjoyed their time together;  and, I believe that all would agree,  the day was unforgettable.
