French Riviera

After a wonderful, albeit short, time in Normandy, we headed South to the French Riviera for a quick 2 days through Nice, Cannes and Frejus where we stayed.
With a good friend of the family, Mathilde, we took a drive and visited a few of the nearby towns, such as Eze and Saint Jean Cap Ferrat. The sun was setting right as we arrived at the beautiful medieval village of Eze which was built, not dissimilarly like Mt Saint Michel, on a rock.

That evening, after a great drive along the coast, we returned to the old part of Nice for our final meal on the "Cotes d'Azur". We're definitely coming back in the summer!
Tomorrow, we head off to Eus, near the border of Spain, said to be one of the most beautiful little villages in France... We'll let you know.

A Bientot.
