A load of bulls

That’s what we saw in the Camargue where they are bred for bull fighting ,

we also came across a few of the famous white horses,
 
 
 a group of pink flamingos, but no storks - which are supposed to make their nests on cartwheels which have been put on the roofs of houses to encourage them to nest, wrong time of year I guess. A short visit to “Etang de Vaccaries”,
 
 
where apparently 80,000 ducks and 60,000 coots make their winter homes, we saw a couple of hundred, tops.


We cross the Rhone river on a ferry at Port Louis



and continue on to Marseilles the second largest city in France, which we drive through and back to the coast at Cassis where the air is filled with the scent of the pine forests as we continue on our way through to our wildcamp spot overlooking the naval port town of Toulon.
