Bonjour!!!

We have just returned from a wonderful, relaxing holiday in the South of France near St Raphael. No phone, no internet so Chris was able to relax. It was just swimming, sun-bathing and eating, bliss. We arrived at the villa quite late on Saturday evening, dropped off the bags and went in search of food. A great little place opposite the beach fed us just before they closed and so we went to bed with full tummies. It took me a few days to get a bit more aclimatised to the heat , we had air conditioning but still it took me 3 or 4 nights before I slept without thinking I was going to explode with heat in the night. During the day we lived in the pool, the youngsters made up games and competitions with all the inflatables available.

I think Alexander was too tired to get on the airbed at that point
