Well, I’ve just returned from a climbing holiday in the south of France in a place called Cassis which is situated in a range of limestone cliffs called les Calanques. A calanque is a geologic formation in the form of a deep valley with steep sides, typically of limestone, in part submerged by the sea. It can be considered a Mediterranean fjord.
I travelled down on the train from Sheffield with a group of friends and then hired a car in Marseilles. The whole journey took 12 hours and was very relaxing with us being able to take our own food and wine whilst looking at the scenery rushing by at 200 mph. Like Sergeant Bosco Albert “B.A.” (Bad Attitude) Baracus said “I ain’t getting on no plane fool”.
If you’re in to climbing this is the place to be. Would also be a lovely area to get married in. At least the weather is more reliable!
Now I’m ready for the coming wedding season. So to all you men out there get down on that knee propose to your queen and book your wedding photography with me.
