Travel Blogs from Provence, France
Sunday Drive in Provence
... Barcelona. They were doing the whole trip by rail - we wondered how they would be able to see the lovely villages of Provence - as they were catching buses to various destinations. We then drove to Avignon which once was the papal seat of power - ...
Lazy days
... "Wednesday Morning Market" in nearby Sanary. Sanary is a small town, yet big enough to show up on a map of France, compared to Le Brusc, the village we are staying in which eludes most maps, however detailed. The market displayed a fantastic ...
Travelling day: Nice --> Rome
... Frenchwise. A great way to finish up the French part of the trip! Wallpost was particularly accommodating throughout my time in France, and of course in Australia as she helped me book flights and accommodation. Thanks to her I got the genuine French ...
tasty pizza here
Menton was so on the border of France and Italy that u can get away with either language (thank god!) Very nice beach side town...didn't stay long coz the sun would of melted me. 40 degrees. Good if you love the beach though but you need a mat and shoes ...
Attempting La Route de Napoleon
... from mussels, rabbit, steak tartar to couscous and the whole nation seems to eat their every day). For the first time since I entered France I didn’t enjoy the meal – it was promising to be a wonderful "magret de canard", but I guess I got ...
Nice Nice
We left fun filled Florence with the Busabout crew again en route to Nice, France. First stop was at Pisa to check out a tower that was built incorrectly and thus deservingly famous. (?) There is not much to do in this town than to pose for ...
Heineken with your happy meal?
We are overly tired and ready for bed. So we definitely forgot to write about the opera and its effects on our stay in Florence! We had a twelve bed room that was complete with locked closet that opened into an opera house that was right below us! We ...
A little unexpected...
So I was on Facebook, and I saw that a high school friend of mine, Roman Loonis, was in Aix-en-Provence, only 2 hours away. Roman was the other French kid in high school and he also has family here. I got in contacted with him and the next day ...
Together Again
... meeting people, exercising (see photos from trail run we took up the valley), but mostly just enjoying the time together. In France the big Christmas celebration is on Christmas Eve. Colin was kind enough to invite us to a potluck with some friends ...
Last Day in Nice
... , all Italians inside-plat du jour-beef kebab and courgettes. Leave hotel and head back to Aubagne, been a great time in South of France. Kids had lots of smiles. Happy I remembered area so well because we were able to make the most of our time ...
Marseille
Didn't take long to get there from Nice. Cool Hostel. Walked around the Harbour, Cours Julien is good, cafe's, bookshops, soup kitchens. The Notre Dame de la Garde is cool, but I got there at 5pm and it was closed. I got a boat to an Island near the ...
Niece/ French Riviera
From Barcelona we headed back to France to the French Riviera. We stayed close to the town of Nice. On our way into our accommodation, we stopped at a perfumery and had a tour and went into their wholesale shop (still not terribly cheap). Went for a walk ...
Pre-departure.
Well, I am now just one short week away from D-date and final details are just being fixed. I've never been a particularly good packer, Hannah swears by her "just roll everything into balls" technique, but I am sure that even she will struggle with this ...
Boring drive day so here is life in Scooby
This is a top pick! ... HOT!! We need to fill up our water tank every few days as there is only enough water for 2 showers each and dish washing water. In France filling up the water tank was pretty easy and cheap (2-3 Euro) via staying in an Aire d'service. In Italy, it was not ...
Just wanted to add the location to the map!
Don't have anything to write about, Just wanted to add the location to the ...
Drive by Aix en Provence
... to my audio version of The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People. Tuesday March 10th Pottered about down to St Remy de Provence this morning for a mooch about the town. It really is a delight and this is a good month to catch everyone emerging ...
Hitchhiking "sucks"
... a bothersome man to "fuck off" (sorry mom), saying that something sucks, and several ways to express that you have become intoxicated. France is great! After dinner, my new friend Fiona and I met up with Marcel to have a beer in Place Clemenceau. It ...
4 day trip to Nice
I went to nice for 4 days. It was great to have sunshine!! If it looks like I wore the same skirt for multiple days it is because it was too hot to for pants and the skirt was the only non pants thing I had! ...
Vieraatkin pääsevät nautiskelemaan...
Täällä kelit on muuttuneet hieman liiankin kesäisiksi...nollarajaa lupailee jopa 3000 metriin ja nyt jo 2000 metrissä taitaa tulla vetenä. Lunta siis jälleen kerran tullut hieman ja päästiin huipulla jopa puuteria tykittelemään. Siistiä, kun ...
Marseille
Uzun bir yolculuktan sonra nihayet Marsilya'dayim. Fakat geldigime degdi galiba. Istasyondan kafayi uzatir uzatmaz karsima cikan manzara bu sehre bir anda kanimi isitti. Hani eski turk filmlerinde olur, adam koyden trenle Haydarpasa garina gelir, disari ...
Shaken not stirred
... don’t know where I was off in my number, as I don’t remember nodding off….oh well. We passed into France at about 3:30. Originally we were supposed to stay in Nice (pronounced like the daughter of your brother of sister, or ...
'On days like these...' (The Italian Job)
... is that I don't know any owners (and would you want to anyway?). This coastal route is home to many would be 'Tour de France' aspirants. There were many who were honed to perfection with all the gear - 110% lycra and as many gears to match. However, the ...
Nice and Eze le Village
I woke up after a great sleep. Hartley couldn't sleep as the street noise kept him up most of the night. Our hotel is just off a major street and alot of the mopeds here sound like lawnmowers. He stayed behind as he wanted a lazy day and I went off in ...
Amazing camping
We wandered from our campground to the beach and enjoyed a morning dip in the fabulous Pampelonne Bay. I can understand why the rich and famous like to come here for their holidays! Last night walking to and from dinner was hard work – the ground ...
Bordeaux for $3
... to be! On the way, we stopped at cafe and ate an omelette. Many shops and restaurants close during the afternoon in southern France and Italy. Odd to us from Houston, where something is always open! Overall, the bit of the city we walked through was nice ...
French Riveria, rocky beaches
Beautiful, but not so nice to lay on the beach...ouch big rock, who would have ...
Finally leaving France...
... to update the blog since Paris, but I've been keeping the record of all the adventures, so once I have time to write out all the stories (I'm sure I'll have pleinty while camping), I'll post them & pictures here. Arrivederci France - Ciao Italia! :) ...
More Gypsies in France.
... expensive cheese, we soon hurried back to the van to devour the cheese we still had so that we could justify buying more. France dominates when it comes to cheese so the frommage adventure continues! Just around the coast we can see Monaco and ...
