Such is the extraordinary geographical characteristic of this island mount, whose fame has spread abroad through the centuries that have beheld the abbey which still crowns its summit. The hand of man has performed a feat in building upon and fortifying this island home of religious exiles from the mainland. The high walls rise in irregular and mediaeval sternness from the water's edge, and have protected it from foes since they were built at a remote period. The Hotel Poulard, with its delight...ful and efficient hostess, is one of the most original and attractive inns in France. Here we all, to use the French phrase, descended, or rather ascended the steep and tortuous street which winds its narrow way up the side of the rock. The street is so narrow that one is obliged to walk, and the houses appear almost to be hanging in mid-air. On the left is the en- trance to the Hotel Poulard Aine. In spite of the crowds that fill this interest- ing inn in summer, the table and wines are excellent, and the poulet is deservedly famous throughout this region.
