The heat and World Cup hindered my blog posts for the last couple of days.
We had a great beach day in Nice- although we might have been a touch ragged at the end of the day. The sun is strong here! We also enjoyed a hop-on hop-off bus tour and got a good Birds Eye view of the city and Villefranche-sur-Mer. The water was perfect and the kids were tired and all around success.
Yesterday, Charles and I took an early jaunt to the beach and collected sea glass for Randal (who couldn’t handle the early trip). We checked out of Nice and headed to Antibes, a charming little town only 30 minutes away. We walked along the ramparts, ate crepes, and tried not to overheat.
When I decided we were ready for an air conditioned drive, we got in the car and headed to Provence for our charming town, La Vaison-la-Romaine. Our house is on the hill with a gorgeous view of the town and Mont Veuve and a pool to entertain the kids. Mom made mussel pasta and we sat outside as the sun set. We talked about our favorite things about the USA and reflected on 250 years. A few of us stayed up to watch France beat Paraguay (hooray!!) and rest our heads.
Today we are having a slower day (no alarm for me) and might go explore the town. It’s hot, but bearable with pastries as fuel.
Bonne journée à tous et Allez Les Bleus!
