Residence Open Golfe-Juan Vallauris

After brekkie it was onto Menton which is a lovely little town just before the Italian border. Menton is a much more down to earth place than its neighbours and more our scene. We found a park right on the beach and went for a wander and took in sum much needed sun. Next stop Italia!!<br>

... and not campervan parking friendly. We found a picture perfect stop just after Monte Carlo at the top of a hill overlooking the Med. We had the place to ourselves so we russelled up some brekkie in the sun which was lovely, so much so we were in t-shirts!!!

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 ...

... the wonderful "fun" and "vitamin" radio stations to keep us entertained with "Evacuate the Dancefloor" and 3 other dance songs that they kept repeating.<br><br>http://picasaweb.goog le.com/Jonny.D.Lawrence/20090928Cannes? authkey=Gv1sRgCPHzqZ_hy_fA8AE&amp;feat= directlink

... first day in Nice was spent on the beach, we couldn't wait to go into the ocean, that we went swimming without towels. Wasn't a good idea since Nice is all rock beaches and we couldn't really sit to dry off... WE had a delicous pasta dinner at Pasta Basta and ordered the finest wine on ...

... happened. So, I decided to just explore Old Nice and the Promenade des Anglais one last time and the beach and call it a day. Besides, I still had more traveling ahead of me during this holiday season and I was still worn out from Monaco as well as that darn cold (I was better but still blowing my nose and coughing here and there) I figured a nice, relaxing afternoon along the Promenade des Anglais and the beach, etc would be a good ...

... Back in Nice, we returned to Old Town for a couple celebratory beers, where we met Marc, a local, and hung out for awhile. He had lived in Montreal and NY so he knew decent english and we kept practicing our childish French. He owns a massage parlour and had apparently been to Cannes for the festival to massage there. After this late night we got up for our 10am train to Barcelona. But that is a debacle I´ll leave for the next post.
