An interesting little town. Probably my favourite place to live on the whole riviera, so long as you are not too close to the sewage farm! They have recently done up the coast road and sea front. Superb job. There's an enormous car boot sale around the middle of September. Took us 5 hours to walk round it! Sometimes you can have too much shopping! Car boot sale is vide grenier in french. The link takes you to an eccentric, but wonderful site that has details of lots of other vide greniers. There is a pleasant walk from the sea front to the top of the town. Did I say pleasant? It was only after our friends got there, completely knackered, they discovered that there's a bus service! They tell me that the view was wonderful but unfortunately they didn't have a camera. I'll lend them one if they go again! There is a Lidl near here if you are feeling homesick! The Renoir Museum is here and as far as I know it is actually open. He's a good painter One afternoon - two coats! (Apologies to the best film ever - The Producers with Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder)     Horse racing at the hippodrome near here. This it from the air, taken from my very own Easyjet! They have flower shows here too. Sorry - The site is in French but I'm sure Mr. Google will do you a good translation.
