Loved Argeles, more than ever but had to head home.
A great stay. Arrived at Millau before 12 at Camping Les Rivages. Took a pitch by the river as it was 32c. Nice site not used before.sat around waiting for it to cool ,took Jonesy for a paddle and later swam in the pool, 28c pool temp too warm ,should have joined Jonesy in the river with our Herbert!! Cycled into Millau to our favourite bar, closed so went over the road. Our search to draw cash out without charges finally over no charge in Millau. Euros now available for next trip. Tried telling Barbara we don't need cash!

Easy like Sunday morning.
Cycled down to Le Racou again. Yes another hot one. Passed the artists working away. What a fab idea ,Permanent boards acting as easels. Just turn up with your paints and create a work of art. Great if that could be replicated for the kids of the North West.
Got to beach and heard a jzzz band rehearsing good sax player.

Really enjoying Argeles sur Mer.
Nice to step out of your motorhome every morning and feel the warm sunshine in a nice quiet location. Also nice to feel it in the evening. Today Friday we took a nice leisurely paced cycle along the front down to the far end of Argeles, past the port to Le Racou beach. We first came here 37 years ago when Tim was 3. We camped in a tent at a nearby site and visited the beach most days.
Le Soleil.
i go on quite q bit about how good this site is but the heated swimming pool is just one of the best. Only downside is the chairs and no sun beds.

Last day in Spain.
Much better day today, weather picking up and set to be around 23c for about 10 days. Walked down to far end of beach for only my second sea swim of the holidays. Later to the pool on the campsite. Such a pity we didnt have better weather because we really like Sant Antoni although it's been really quiet with very few bars and restaurants open.

Nice morning but afternoon dismal with thunderstorms.
Lovely sunny morning so we walked our new Olympian welsh terrier to the front ,heading south towards Playa d'aro. Had a coffee at the very end of the prom then strode over the headland where we took in the view of Playa d'aro. Afternoon was a washout with thunderstorms. This trip has been fraught with indifferent,cool cloudy weather. That's being generous.
