Ajaccio

After the trip through the mountains, I'm back on the coast. Ajaccio is fairly small, about 60,000 people. Big enough to have plenty of restaurants and small enough to walk all over town. Oh, and it's got beaches! I'm not big on swimming in the open water, but I actually dipped my toes in the other day. It's not super fine sand, but the water is beautiful.


These are the Iles Sanguinaires, about 18 km west of Ajaccio. There is a lighthouse and a 16th century Genoese tower. I went there by boat yesterday, but it was gray and stormy:


I took a bus today there today after the sun came out.
