Hello my friends!!!
Last week finally I've had some days off to work and so hubby and I spent our vacations on the French Riviera in a beautiful town called Menton.
It's only about 2 hours and half drive from our town but...believe me...it's all another world...
First because there is the sea...LOL...our town is surrounded by mountains...
Then, as this town is part of the Cote d'Azur and it'ls also part of the Provence, it has the typical look of the French towns...really well trimmed, you can find flowers everywhere, small bistrots and cute restaurants and...the sea is wonderful!
We enjoyed so much our stay there! we only go a couple of hours one afternoon on the beach, it was hot and with lots of people so...we decided to walk...
And...we walked soooo much, lots and lots of kilometres...LOL!!!!
There are beautiful "promenades" there, so relaxing near the sea...
So...our days were as follow...more or less...
We got up not too much early in the morning, we wore our walking shoes, shorts and tank top (hubby a T-short...LOL) and we went to have our breakfast in a nice italian bar...
Cappuccino and croissants were wonderful!
We walked for about 2 hours, then we come back to the town for lunch that usually was ice cream...
Then we come back to the hotel for have a bit of rest and we did another walk in the afternoon...
Then we come back again to the hotel for a shower and for get ready for the evening-night...
The nights were magics...thousands of people everywhere, restaurants open till late, music, open market near the beach...
I think this is a little paradise not too much far from us...
In effect, this is our first holiday there but...we go there since we were...younger...LOL...about 20 years ago...
Every summer we went there 2 or 3 times...also if only for 1 day...we can't miss it!!!!
In the next posts, I'll show you the old town, Menton by night and the delicious food!!!
Hope you enjoyed my little tour... :O)
