St. Pierre and Miquelon are two French isalnds off the coast of Newfoundland.

How French are they? They speak French. They use Euros. They drive Pugeots. They even have a guillotine.
A view of Mary T out in the St. Pierre harbor They named a street after our favorite political satirist.
The surrounding hills are quite barren but the town makes up for it with their colorful houses. Ile aux Marins--an island on the other side of the St. Pierre harbor. It is sort of like a mini Williamsburg, VA.
Some of the houses on Ile aux Marins are used as summer homes. The area between houses was used for drying cod.

We took a dinghy ride to the other end of the island looking for a picnic site. A mini fjord
We chose this nice rocky beach to enjoy our French style outing including bread, cheese, and wine. Can't get enough of those rocks.
