... wine bottle and then we thought they were off on the trail, but no they got in the car and drove on!
At the end of the gorge we joined the road towards Cannes, which was route Napoleon, orginially created by him as a pass through the mountains...very windy. Our destination for the evening was Grasse where we found a good park overlooking the city lights and our first view of the Med.

... charmed him with our amazing french skills and naturally he fell in love with us...well ok maybes not, but he told us the history of the area and said we could even contact him if we ever needed help with french.

anyway so we went on to see amboise, which was medieval. Chambord, which was built as a hunting lodge. A HUNTING LODGE?!?!?!?? gah crazy castle people. its just about the most amazing and grand thing ive ever seen. the staircase on ...

But first, a little commentary on our observations. As I mentioned from Germany, the European people love station wagons. We have all seen them at times in the states but they are everywhere in Europe. We saw the German versions right off, but through the rest of the countries we visited it is also clear that the wagon is the car of choice. All sizes, all makes. In Italy, Fiat, Lancia, and ...

... but without the superstars.

Back to the senses: France smells good and tastes good too! Le Marches (the markets) occur everyday where fresh flowers, bread, fruits, vegetable and fish are sold daily. This is the way of life here; no supermarkets or walmart, just good fresh food, purchased daily.

The food here in France could be the best... the flavors and savors or french cuisine, rival all of our other meals in all of the countries we visited. Fresh food ...

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

When I found a free camp spot in my book for St Tropez I knew we had to go there. Even though we were low on money and I knew it was going to be a ridiculously expensive town, I just couldn't drive past it and not spend a night there. The weather was blazing hot and as we drove into the town we saw all the super yachts moored just off the beach. The camp spot was beautiful, tucked away in the middle of nowhere hidden by loads of bamboo plants. We had to pay 10 euros but ...

... while listening to the waves crash into the shore. The next day we gained an hour, so even though we slept in until 930, it was only 830 - bonus sightseeing time! Bri headed right for the beach but I knew my skin couldnīt handle a full day, so I did some sight seeing first. I went to Marche aux Fleurs - a flower market. If you are a man living in Nice, you should feel ashamed if you donīt regularly bring your wife flowers from this bustling market! The smells of freshly cut ...

Hi there! Well, I had a glut of travel experiences to post today...that stuff adds up fast. I finally burned some more pics to a CD today...and I'm uploading them as I type. I spent the day on the rocky beaches of Nice on the French Riviera today. Not a bad place to spend an afternoon! The way the beach is layed out, it ...
