Postcard from sunny Brighton Madeira Drive as Mods, scooterists and bikers gather for their traditional August Bank Holiday runs. Zip-wire and Volks railway running too.
Beach volleyball at Plage des Catalans, Marseille 7ième. Lunchtime game on the court of the Club du Volley-Ball des Catalans, Marseille.
Picturesque artisan boulangerie in Marseille 6th arrondissement. Wonderful these places thrive here, their fresh bread, patisseries and Viennoiseries are still some of the great pleasures of life in France. But astonished to see someone reading a book with his petit déj. These are mostly small family businesses, many have been going for generations in the same location. The boulanger here rides a fine bike - a Royal Enfield Himalayan.
Arrived in Menton later than expected due to delays on the TGV network. Plus a Mediterranean storm brewed up out of nowhere (ie not forecast) around Cannes and Antibes on the route from Marseille. But great to be here on holiday for nearly a week. Hotel we get on with and good food options in the town.
