Swim where Errol Swam … Bet where Errol Bet … Stay where Errol Stayed …
In Deauville, on the Normandy Coast, “the new St. Tropez”:
Overlooking the Channel, circa 1952:
With French Stars Gerard Bauer & Jean-Louis Barreau, and Mexico’s Immortal Maria Felix!, circa 1954
The Casino Barriere de Deauville
The Deauville-Clairefontaine Hippodrome
Tour the Hotel Royal Barriere:
And don’t forget to visit the Errol Flynn Beach Cabana on the Promenade de Plantages and Errol Flynn Suite at Hotel Le Manoirs!

Great trove, Deauville slugger. I see Errol and Maria rubbing backs and looking the other way…

Felix could be quite catty, senorheinz. Indeed, sometimes notoriously so. Her legendary diva-ego probably had her believing she was bigger than Flynn. Plus, Flynn was amigos with Senorita Del Rio, Gatowoman’s more internationally successful and regarded rival. … Then again, maybe one of her horses lost that day at the Hippodrome.

Felix & Flynn playing footsie in that photo, seasideheinz? Errol must have been triple-jointed!
Perhaps you’re thinking of the short story about when Ronnie Reagan played footsie with Errol?
