Hotel Du Levant Castellane

Gorgeous morning and a stunning place for breakfast awaited us just outside Scooby overlooking the lake. I went for a run but Kim was feeling a little under the weather so she stayed and made me breakfast - yay! We spotted two girls about our age and attempted to engage in some conversation but their English was limited and French is rubbish. Shame as its manily been the grey hair brigade we ...

... campervans. One of which had the biggest dog we have every seen. It was a Newfoundland, which looked a little like a small bear but was as tame as a kitten. As the sun was about to set we took some photos and then had a wander through the village - everything was closed - end of season.

... Europe, but I think I would kinda like having the quarter horse of Europe instead. Wouldn't you..?

After being through Florence and Rome, it is understandable that small cars are a big hit. Many of these are featured in the quiz below. City streets and even small town roads are so tight and thin that parking is nuts and spots are few. This requires small cars and creative techniques. I have featured a ...

Leave from nice on the Chemins de fer de Province (diesel train) to Touet-sur-Var. And then the steam train to Entrevaux, city with amazing views. On the way back a quick stop in Puget-Théniers.

My camera battery died once we hit Entrevaux so no photos :(

... the wonderful "fun" and "vitamin" radio stations to keep us entertained with "Evacuate the Dancefloor" and 3 other dance songs that they kept repeating.

... vertrekken in de canyon! Toch een speciaal gevoel!

Al gauw merken we ook dat de steen waaruit deze canyon bestaat, van een heel speciale soort is!
Normaal gezien probeer je in canyons zoveel mogelijk uit het water te wandelen, omdat het daar minder glad is. Hier is het net andersom! Wil je niet onderuit gaan, blijf in het water!

We zetten er ook maar ...

... place the locals cue for apparently. We reluctantly left France after 8 wonderful days and drove back to Milan and an hour out to the Como Lake district near the Swiss border. Although I had planned the trip I hadn't worked out that this area was also at the foot of The Alps and therefore my Frenchy summer cloths were not appropriate. I was however very excited to see such tall snow covered mountains and are currently planning a ski trip in them for January. So our ...

... south of the the gorges and down a mostly one-lane road that (almost amazingly) was sealed, fun to drive and had a great view everywhere you looked. On the way down we spotted the amazing sight of a Church high on the side of a hill and wondered what that was all about. On arrival into the village below the church (which turned out to be Castellane) we rolled the dice once again and spoke to the Tourist Office ...

... beach. If there isn't enough sand out to sea then they import sand from Spain. Funnily enough there was no one swimming in the water either. A bit cold I think. From there we just took a stroll through some of the shopping districts and market areas. One girl had spent so much that she didn't realize all her money was gone. She had a frantic call to her parents that day! All in all it was a very relaxing day which was a change of being on the go all the time. After this wasn't a ...
