An Englishman in Le Lavandou (3)





On Sunday morning the four of us motored to La Londe to visit the market. Now French markets are always interesting - look at the saucisson and spices stalls in the photos! We then wandered into Le Lavandou and Photo 3 shows one of the gardens on the sea front.
.
After eating lunch at André's JP, Tine & I went for a walk along the coast to the east. Last time I was here I twisted my ankle badly, luckily history didn't repeat itself! The coastal walk is beautiful with good views of sea-birds on the rocks before you get to the next bay (St Clair, I think).
.
The last photo shows palm trees on the main beach at Le Lavandou. By now the sky was clear blue. Then back to say au-revoir to André and into the car to motor up to Carcassonne to stop overnight before continuing to Vendée. You realise just how big France is when JP told us we'd done nearly 2,000 km since Thursday!
