Les vagues sont complètement dingues au Truc Vert

There's this huge beach we love,

in the middle of the pine forest,

it's called The green thing.

Amazing waves there absolutely everyday.

When you get there, you here their wild

and powerful sound from a big distance,

and their movement makes a mist above the sand, 

even on sunny days.

La vue sur le bassin le soir

our view on the Bassin d'Arcachon.

our house is just above the water,

sunset time is pretty, like anytime there.

there is just us, the pine forest, and the sea.
