Day 6: Cannes and St. Tropez

The rain from the previous night dissipated by the time the coach was ready to leave the hotel in the morning.  Another sunny day!



The bus meandered through the coastal highway and reached Cannes where everybody got off the bus for a quick photo stop.






Then it was back on the bus for more views of the Mediterranean sea before travelling south to the marina of St.-Maxime.




While the tour group was waiting for the ferry, As a treat, Marie handed out macarons for everybody to try.   It was terribly windy and very chilly as the tour group boarded the choppy 15 minute boat ride to St. Tropez.  Marc was going to drive the bus into St. Tropez to meet the tour group later.







In St. Tropez, Marie gave a quick guided tour and then everybody was off to get something to eat and explore for a few hours.  There were lots of fancy yachts for Misterpiggy to see.









Misterpiggy saw these trees everywhere he went. The bark looks like blotches of paint.





Finally, it was back on the bus for the drive to busy Marseille.  Misterpiggy stayed at the Holiday Inn Prado hotel and there was a special Trafalgar dinner  in the hotel dining room that evening.



Here's Misterpiggy's review of the Holiday Inn Prado in Marseille.
