La Bastide des Salins Hotel St-Tropez

It is Sunday and very wet and miserable here in Antibes. Quite a change from the glorious day we had yesterday. Ideal for computer work in fact... (Except that then things didn't pan out as planned and it is now Monday)

It wasn't my intention to have an entry before my departure but the response to my initial circular has been so overwhelming that I feel it merited an ...

... wine bottle and then we thought they were off on the trail, but no they got in the car and drove on!
At the end of the gorge we joined the road towards Cannes, which was route Napoleon, orginially created by him as a pass through the mountains...very windy. Our destination for the evening was Grasse where we found a good park overlooking the city lights and our first view of the Med.

Oddly, we haven't seen as many sports/exotics over here as you might think. There are a few Porches here and there. Big deal.. Some Ferraris but again not as many as I thought I would see. Oh and a couple of "greasers" in Lambos (Good God..! This could be a blog topic all on it's own, so I'll discuss in person over a glass of wine with the quiz winner)... So, what was the most spotted and ...

... Sailboats were docked at the marina (knez, it made me think of you). Diane ordered mussles and Jon and I had our first mussels ever. They were delicious. Thank you Diane for helping me discover my love for sea food. St-Tropez was further than we thought, but thank god we ...

... me. So St Tropez was pretty cool filled with shopping and relaxation, great food and fun. It felt like i was back in Australia only the room was much much much much much smaller then our house. My highlight was the day before we left. We had fun. We went on Jet ski’s, we went water skiing and donuting! My favourite part was donuting because the guy was really friendly with us by the end of it because of the skiing, and he did ...

... had contacted me only a few days before my arrival. I had e-mailed her back with a reply, but I hadn't heard from her, so I was sort of hoping she'd gotten the message to pick me up. If not, I'd told her I'd find a hotel for the night (easier said than done, of course, what with two 24-kg bags, a duffel, and my carry-on, which also included the 8-lb monstrosity that is the computer I am using to type this). Sure enough, right on time ...

... that it was a Spanish tradition, I should at least go and I could always leave if it was too gruesome for me. Let's say that sitting in the sun for over 3 hours in over 100 degree heat watching people stab and kill bulls is not my idea of fun... but it was interesting, to say the least! That night Kate and I decided to try our Spanish at a traditional Spanish restaurant with the locals that only spoke Spanish. We did alright, except ...

... The harbour is packed with all types of vessels, from huge luxurious yachts to humble fishing crafts and dinghies. We walk around the harbour and enter the town through a narrow gateway. As with most of the villages we have seen, no vehicular traffic is allowed in the narrow cobbled lanes, so one can wander at will past the historic buildings now principally converted to boutiques, souvenir shops and restaurants, all very tasteful of ...
