The understatement of the century might be what I am about to say - I have neglected France For All. I know, I know. What was I thinking? Well, I'll let you into a little secret....I totally forgot that I had started this blog. I'm only now beginning to fully understand the blogosphere and so, I revisit my old France For All Blog, and intend to keep it updated from here on in. You can quote me on that.
Sadly, I decided to wrap up the website. I found I just didn't have the time to fully develop it. It had evolved from my initial plans and I had decided to focus on the area around Port Grimaud primarily, and to sell mobile homes, offer holidays etc, but it needed more time (and a bit of money) that I just didn't have. That said, my passion for the south of France has not abated and I still want to keep in touch with the area.
The resorts will be revving up for the forthcoming season; the weather will be getting slowly warmer, warmer still, then hot, hot, hot; the numbers of people in the region will be increasing gradually day by day, and the summer madness will begin in earnest.
Many years ago (I can't tell you because I can't believe I'm that old... I'm in total denial of the number of years ago it actually is), anyway, many years ago, I worked on a campsite in Port Grimaud. This was the start of my love affair with the region. The campsite I worked on, Les Prairies de la Mer is a much more sophisticated place than it was all those years ago, and you can have a quiet relaxing time or a full on energetic time. You can experience all manner of watersports from the beach, take a boat trip across the bay to St Tropez, wander around the pretty streets of Port Grimaud, hire a boat to explore the waterways, drive inland to explore tranquil and stunning Grimaud with it's ruined castle perched high overlooking the village and the coast beyond. There is so much to see and to do that you will want to return again and again. Prepare to be seduced.
