Into the Camargue


Sheltering from the Mistral we made two car excursions down to the Med and through the striking terrain of the Camargue. The second had as objective Les Saintes Maries de la Mer, where Ruth had spent a memorable time in 1982 sleeping on the beach! No blue plaque and you now can't drive as near to the lagoon! The sun shone, the wind had moderated and we enjoyed a pleasant afternoon there watching hordes of tourists! (We - of course - are travellers - not the T word!) Loads of horses, some flamingos, some bulls - a lot of marshland!

Also a lot of Roma begging!
