... wine bottle and then we thought they were off on the trail, but no they got in the car and drove on! <br> 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.

... Sailboats were docked at the marina (knez, it made me think of you). Diane ordered mussles and Jon and I had our first mussels ever. They were delicious. Thank you Diane for helping me discover my love for sea food. St-Tropez was further than we thought, but thank god we ...

The main course consisted of a cold tuna type casserole and then sautéed green beans and mushrooms and of course, more ...

After a wonderful dinner, we headed to another place for an after dinner drink before we headed to the hotel. It was nice, we had a lot of time to talk about our travel up to this point and recall our stories and experiences. We went to bed with smiles on our faces, ready for a new day and a new adventure.

... Antionette, we're going to be the kind of people that just jump in. You'll remember this moment for the rest of your life". "Are all English men like you?" "Nope. Just me baby. Just me.
