Destination: Mediterranean


We left this for our room mates


Train station in Cassis; the town with the glorious beach

Cassis!


1785
The ocean is behind us!!!!

Beautiful art is everywhere - even on rooftops
This town was much quieter than Aix.
Not so overrun with students and tourists.
(....I know we fit both categories)
At last














She told me it was a flower...

  1. American actress Mercedes McCambridge (Giant, All the King's Men) once said she was glad she was a woman who had danced naked in the Mediterranean sea at midnight. After seeing your pictures, I'm guessing that you are just as happy to have been there--without the need to be naked! But I hope you dance, either at noon, or midnight, or.... I'm hoping you go back many times...and at least once splurge on an espresso in one of the cafe's. Lovin' those pictures....Mom

  2. Well, I don't know what I am more jealous of, the water, the fabulous outdoor cafes, the artwork, or just all of it in general!!! You all look fabulous, the french air must be doing you good. What is the name of the Cathedral near you?
