France 2010 - An evening in Collioure

When we got back to Villa Claire, from our adventurous day down the ‘Ugly Valley’ and the aquarium, I felt quite exhausted and decided to hang out by the pool while Pug and the kids wanted more adventures, so set off to Argeles-sur-mer to investigate what that was like.

On their return we then went into Collioure for an evening stroll round the town.  It was lovely.  We had a wander around the alleyways of the town where there were lots of little shops selling all sorts of lovely things.  Rhi bought herself a bag and some bracelets.  We stopped for a lovely drink, sitting right on the beach front and watched people wandering around as they do on holiday.  A few children were still playing in the sea even though it was quite dark.   Music was being played by musicians and bands out on the street nearby.

This was what being on holiday is about to me.  From the adventures of that day, to chilling out in the evening, just lapping up the intoxicating atmosphere of Collioure on a beautiful summers evening.




Here are some pictures of Collioure. They show the waterfront area of the town. There are a number of small twisty streets behind the beach.
