Our time here is not just spent lying by the swimming pool, however tempting. We have been visiting a few of the places close by the camp site, often due to keeping Raphy amused during the afternoon.
First we went to Decathlon in Toulon to purchase some UV tops and new bikinis for Mia and Abi. Unfortunately we joined hundreds of other people at Decathlon, as it was the summer sale. It was very busy and hot but the girls are really pleased with their outfits and we no longer have to worry about them getting sunburnt.
Then Aaron and I took Raphy for a tour along the coast with a stop at a winery (Minuety). Aaron did some tasting and bought an expensive bottle of wine. Minuety produce delicious wines, especially Rose.

Raphy and I went for a walk through a grove of trees, which was very pleasant aand cool.
Then to the beautiful old village of Hyers, where we walked through the old medieval streets - mostly on a step slope. The bougainvillia was in full bloom.
Aaron, Mia and Abi climbed up to the top of the ruined castle,
while Raphy enjoyed his ice cream. 
The botanical gardens are very lush and provide a green approach to the castle ruins. We have always taken the long way through rough, meandering tracks which takes considerably longer. I did not know that this pleasant and shorter route existed until this trip!
The family went on a walk through the national park below Giens. I looked after Raphy in a shady cafe whilst drinking coffee and Perrier water!
