Marseille Vacation -- Third Day

Again waking up late... ag.. what the hell.. these are my vacations. At 11:30 i reach the Vieux Port and buy a ticket to Frioul Islands. I have to wait 45 mins, enough to get an Spar and buy something for the trip.
The day was marvelous.. warm and very nice. I walked through the both islands (not D´if but i took many pics of this island from the others.. the story of the "cond of montecrist" from dumas was based in a real story happend there. I was all the day walking taking pics... climbing ropes (see pics) and asking me two questions:
1. Why so many people seem to have tried to settle down there but failed-- i saw many abandoned houses.
2. Why there seem to be ilogical constructions -- see linea de tren that end in the nothing.

funny. :-P Perhaps the history of those islands were at some point similar to the one in Ireland : people was ordered to do things without a sense only because they have to be employed.
The day was soooo good... only a dark spot... the dinner. Instead of paying 18eu for a Bouillabaisse.. i decided to pay 12 for a unknow dish in an unknow restaurant in front of the Vieux Port. Result: 12 euros lost. Well. thats ok too... i bought 20 eggs and though: i will only eat eggs and mcdonnals the next 3 days. !! :-s i was quite mad.
