Marseille Day






We drove along the coast in very overcast weather, and got very lost trying to find the hotel near the airport. Next day we took the airport shuttle into the city and had a great day in bright sunshine.
It's a very noisy, vibrant place - well-cared for and with excellent public transport. We'll go again!
One innovation is the collection of publicly owned bicycles. Bob wanted to use one!
Marseille airport is big, airy and modern - but Ryanair fly from the annexe mp2 - which could not be more basic! Still - it was cheap and we arrived at Stansted on Friday 11th April.
