We're not in London anymore...

Shrimp Provencal
We arrived in Marseille this afternoon. Malcolm, our host in London, was kind enough to drive us from the apartment in London to St Pancras station where we caught the EuroStar. We arrived in Paris just after 11:00, then made our way across Paris to catch a TGV to Marseille. So far, we love Marseille. The first thing we noticed when we came out from the Metro station was the wonderful smell of the sea. The apartment is huge compared to the one in Knightsbridge, and has everything we need. We dropped off out stuff then walked around the area (we are staying in Old Port), then found some dinner.
As you might have guessed, the seafood was excellent.
Our first bread in France this trip--and it was perfect


Salmon Tartare










Paella





St Jacques





Creme Caramel



Chocolate Tarte
We walked some more after dinner, then headed back to the apartment. So here are some random pics I took around the apartment, in the Port Vieux (old Port) area.








Tomorrow we'll explore more, then I'll be working in the Marseille office for the next 3 days.




Somebody is waiting for something...
