I hope you like it... I made a montage from the Island where I past a part of my chilhood...
Thanks wiki.. : "Île de Ré (pronounced [il də ʁe]; in English Isle of Rhé) is an island off the west coast of France near La Rochelle, on the northern side of the Pertuis d'Antioche strait. Its highest point has an elevation of 20 metres (66 feet). It is 30 kilometres (19 miles) long and 5 kilometres (3 miles) wide. The 2.9 km (1.8 mi) Île de Ré bridge, completed in 1988, connects it to La Rochelle on the mainland"
SO doesn't matter if we is writing in french or english, the last letter would be an E
... So here there is ... :

îLE DE Ré
