Saint Aubin sur Mer
 

The start of the XXth century to the Roaring Twenties

When leaving the Château - the road then ran alongside its wrought iron gate - we walk down the main street of the village to the "Guerville" grocery shop, the church square, and then onto the Sea Road ("Rue de la mer"), with the "Hôtel des bains", and after that downhill to the sea.
