Photo of the Week – August 8, 2014

Before leaving the south of France I was lucky enough to visit La Calanque d’En-Vau, pictured here. It’s one of the many calanques along the Mediterranean coast between Marseille and Cassis. The point of departure was a winding coastal road from which we hiked two hours to get to the rocky beach which was flanked on either side by majestic falaises (cliffs). The beautiful scenery and the Mediterranean’s aqua blue water were so exotic, we felt as though we’d been transported to another part of the world. Photo by Sébastien Bertrand CC BY 2.0], via Flickr
