Lover boy sat on the edge of the boat enjoying the view as we took a tour around the bay of St Tropez. Interesting commentary on the trip about the inhabitants of all the large houses overlooking the bay, and just a nice way to finish off a day of shopping, walking and indulging in an excellent lunch overlooking the harbour.

From the boat, we had a great view of what was formerly an old town and fishing port before Brigitte Bardot decided to buy her home here. Since then so much has changed!

One of the streets of fashions in the old village of St Tropez - many dogs accompanied their owners so Love Bear hid trembling in one of our bags for most of the day. It was a good day for our absent friend to miss as temptations for spending were all around us!
