San Tropez to Nice

Drove the 50 miles are so towards Nice along lovely coast road thru St Maxime, Port Grimaud and St Raphael. As we approached Cap d'Esterelle a thick sea mist rolled in and at times completely shrouded the red rocks of the cape. Picnicked on a lay by at the top of the cape and took photos as the mist rolled in and out. Approaching Cannes the traffic became horrendous not helped by frequent road works. The beaches were full of holiday makers and it was impossible to stop anywhere. Same problem in Antibes, we drove round the old walled town but the parking has all been changed, so made for a nearby site in Cagnes sur Mer. Bad sign posting, or navigating, led us up a steep winding hillside again! Disappointing site (for ACSI book) 2km from anything, including bread, so we just stayed one night. Met some Irish caravaner's booked in for 4 weeks!
