Lockdown Armchair Travel – France – St. Tropez, 2013

F would have been for Finland if I could have found the pictures from our trip there a good while back but I haven’t a clue where they are. So F is for France and a day in St. Tropez during a summer Mediterranean cruise in June 2013.

So what do you think of, when you think of St. Tropez?

Beautiful people in swanky yachts? Yeah, me too.

Beautiful blue sea?

Hidden coves?

Seaside graveyards? That was a surprise.

The town is chic

with a Provencal twist

and lots of expensive bikes

There’s a lively market

selling all sorts of stuff

and the town has a typically French-town-feel

But the sea’s the main attraction

offering a relaxed lifetstyle

a beautiful vista

as well as some history

and some ice cream

Enchanting and quirky all round

Thanks for joining me on this little jaunt around St Tropez. Tomorrow, it’s back to theatreland, and some memories of shows seen in March to July 1978. Stay safe!
