Summer Summary: Corse

--- CORSICA - CORSE DU SUD ---

- View from Bonifacio -

On Aug, 15th, early morning, we left our friends and took the ferry from Santa Teresa to Bonifacio, in Corse, France. Bonifacio is an incredible town,built on a high cliff, right over the sea. The view is incredible and the town just adorable. We arrived when shops and "boulangerie" were still closed. But the air was fresh and filled with nice odours...expecially those of "pain au chocolat" that later we ate!

It was noon when we took the car and drove to Porto Vecchio, where we rented a bungalow in a nice camping near Palombaggia beach. Landscapes of Corse are very similar to those we were used to in Sardegna, but in some way it's wilder...and less crowded.
We used our time to relax on the beach, and we found a great place near the camping, called "Tahiti".

We ended our stay in Corse with a nice visit of Porto Vecchio, another very very nice town. We had a walk around the town centre and found a typical "creperie" where we tried some special crepe...YUMMY!!! We also bought the pan to cook crepe at home...very useful souvenir!!

I loved Corse, and it was a shame to have spent here only 4 days. I definetely want to come back again one day for a longer holiday!!!

Looks like you guys got a great tan (a mark of a wonderful vacation) and had an amazing trip all around. That sounds divine. Maybe someday Jeff and I will be so lucky.
