La Napoule

We headed to La Napoule to revisit the landmarks of Holly's childhood. She spent two years living in this small seaside village in elementary school. We started with some beachtime by the chateau, then went to look at the house Holly had lived in - with amazing luck we managed to connect with the youngest daughter of the family who has owned the bungalow for several generations while she was there for the week, and reminised about days gone by. A visit to La Napoule isn't complete without climbing up the small volcano above the village, the San Peyre, for stunning views of the whole bay. For dinner it was great to catch up with old friends Alain and Cynthia, who had known Holly's family back in the La Napoule days.Read more
