Martigues

Camping trip #2 took place last weekend with happy camper Lily on board as well.  The weather in Savioe had taken a turn for the worse with constant rain so we decided to do as birds to and head south to find the sun.
Five hours from starting out, we arrived at Camping Marius at La Couronne, Martigues, where there was plenty of much-needed sun.

Anyone need a tent peg?

We spent two nights here exploring the area, sunbathing and playing on the beach. Again, the boys LOVED it. I think there's going to be lots of camping trips for us in the years to come.




Fortunately the facilities at this campsite were excellent as the boys spent an awful lot of time covered in sand and general dirt. I don't know what it is about them but they seem to attract grub as soon as they've been washed. We really really appreciated the bath when we got back!

The second night we ate out at the most random restaurant/disco/karaoke bar ever, but totally what we needed. Max was able to run round like a loon and pester little girls without us having to worry about disturbing other diners.

Just like his dad...

Lily had her first ever Moules Frites with a glass of wine like the Froggies do, which she loved. 


And me and Stu drank enough wine, beer and liquers to ensure a good night's sleep.
