THE OLD PORT

From our fourth day, 12th Febraury, 2025, in Marseille. Our programme for the day was to spend the day in Marseille.
The old port has finished up as a modern port in my view. This shot was taken from just outside the Abbaye Saint-Victor. To me, thousands of yachts of all sizes have taken over this port and they make a beautiful view of the harbour. The modern port is at la Joliette,to the north of the Old Port . The Joliette infrastructures began to be used in 1847.
Than you so much for all your views, for your comments and for the fav's on yesterday's picture.

I saw all this on TG1 and more! Italian friends tell me they think he's genuinely a good choice but are a little disappointed an Italian Pope wasn't elected!
