St. Tropez

This is one of our last days here in the South of France and we have decided to go to St. Tropez this morning which is about 90 km from Biot. Eventhough I am here several times in the year I have not been to St. Tropez for a long time. I remember the last time I have been here was sometime in the eighties in October for a sailing trip. It was quite nice then but I actually never really liked it. It´s a dead town and there is hardly a place to find that is open during wintertime. The prices are outrageous compared to Monaco, Nice, Cannes and Antibes and people here are not very friendly. During wintertime I am suggesting - stay in the region of  Les Alpes Maritime. There is much more to see and there is also a "normal life" going on. St. Trop is dead in wintertime and horrible in the main season. The weather was not nice either and this makes impressions even worse.

Some impressions.

This is pretty dull as you can see. There is hardly anybody on the streets and we had a Noistte at Café de Paris which was absolutely chichi and twice as expensive compared to Antibes or any other place that we usually go to. The waiters are not very polite either.
