Today we left Sloane at home and headed to the coast to see the beach. It should have taken about 40 minutes but I took the side road with a round-a-bout every 1/2 mile. Dylan wanted to throw up by the time we got there. We missed the turn for the two beaches that were recommended and ended up at one that was the French equivilent of the Santa Monica boardwalk with some really ugly apartment buildings that must have been built in the 70's. The water was warm and there were no waves and you could wade out really far so the kids swam for a while.
On our way home we saw the turn for the nice beach and we would probably try that next time..Our babysitter suggested casually that we stop at a village called Aigues-Mortes and it was such a cool surprise. It is a walled village built around 1300 with streets lined with shop after shop of adorable things. We found a "sweet" shop and we all went crazy and bought cookies, caramels, chocolates...
They had the prettiest carousel I have ever seen that the kids were so excited about. The whole experience was incredible!
and uckily we found the faster road home!
