Hello,

You read my mind! I was thinking about getting a shopping trolley. I'm hoping to be there a lot, but not permanent just yet. We were at Colmar a couple of weeks ago and tried the trams so will be getting the travel cards when we visit on the 21st March. Hubby's staying for 9 days as he works full time, and I'm staying for 3 weeks to see if I can manage out there on my own.

Thank you so much for your advice

I am back on 20th March for 16 nights. Hubby over on the 28th for 8 nights so I will be there at the same time and can give you some pointers.  Everyone very helpful on Colmar, you just need to ask on the FB page if you need anything.

That's great, I look forward to seeing you there. I don't do Facebook but have found this forum very helpful. Think I might have to bite the bullet and start using Facebook though!

All tips and advice are gratefully received, and thanks again for your help.

See you in March.

Either at the ticket office in the station building in El Campello or, I believe, the tabac shops also sell them.
