Frejus is in Southern France on what is considered the French Riviera. Frejus is next to Saint Raphael and the only difference is crossing the street. Actually the city of Frejus is not not the Mediterranean but the beach or plage there. It is a very nice area and sort of tropical, palm trees, etc. I think a lot like the panhandle of Florida. Very mild in the Winter. We have visited the Sunday Market twice. Every Sunday vendors come and set up on the street along the beach. You can buy anything, fresh fruit, vegetables, meat, baked goods, hot prepared food. clothing, shoes, you name it. These vendors travel from town to town.
We have gone to the beach a couple of days and enjoyed the sun, in October. One night we went to dinner on the beach and took an American girl and her daughter, with whom they have become friends, Had an enjoyable night. They met this gal at the first day of school, her daughter is one grade ahead of Irie and they have become friends. Michele even lent Rick her car and we went to St. Tropez Sunday afternoon.
We have enjoyed a rather relaxing time here, all in all.
The apartment that Rick and Lisa have is quite nice for 3 but a little cramped for 5. It is in a secure, will maintained building about 3 blocks from the beach and across the street from the school. Everything is quite convenient consider they do not have a car. The grocery store is about 3 blocks, the pharmacy 1 block, the bakery 3 blocks, so hey get lost of walking in each day.
All for now, update everything after we get home
