This episode of the Earful Tower's honeymoon season has three segments:

First, it's our look at the beautiful town of La Rochelle and the stunning island Ile de Ré.

Second, we tell the tale of how the scooter broke down and how we were rescued by two kindly French farmers.

Third, we tell the story of Verteuil-sur-Charente and the woman who was married to both the king of France and the king of England. Imagine that.
