It was almost 5 o’clock this afternoon when we decided to drive to Saint-Raphaël. This lovely seaside resort is located in the department of the Var; using the highway, it’s about 45 minutes from our home (though coming back following the Mediterranean along the Corniche d’Or takes over an hour, and sometimes quite a bit longer depending on how many frightened tourists are crawling along the admittedly narrow and winding road that is squeezed between the sea and the Esterel). Today’s photo was taken at 6:48 PM from location N 43° 25.45', E 6° 45.90' and looking in a south-easterly direction (you can “fly” there by firing up Google Earth; the level of detail available for this area is remarkable). More about Saint Raphaël tomorrow.
