Sofitel Mediteranee Cannes

Up early as it was a spectacular sunrise - full of pinks and organges. We wanted to hit McWifi before we entered Italy but we did not find one until later in the day in Menton. Before that we drove the coast road through Nice and Monte Carlo, both concrete ...

... seen and spoken to, to date. <br> Set off mid morning to drive through Gorges du Verdon, again another stunning drive. This time though the weather was kind to us and we were able to get out for a hike after lunch. It seemed like a popular drive as we encountered several other tourists, one couple were eating lunch at the same spot we were. They packed up their picnic, took a swig out of ...

Vanmorgen om 6 uur vertrokken met de bus vanaf station Sittard naar vliegveld Köln-Bonn gereden. We hadden een half uurtje vertraging met de vlieger. <br>Om ca.12 uur landen we op het vliegveld van Nice. We werden met de bus naar het centrum van de stad gereden .....

Cannes is not as glamrous as we thought it would be, it still has all the fancy smancy stores along the beach, but there were definitely no red carpets rolled out when we were there. We did a day trip to St-Tropez, its was the end of a hge sailing competitiona and tons of ...

We were so excited to have another person travelling with us, that our time spent with Diane was mostly fighting over her for her attention and trying to get her to side with one of us. She was definitely a good friend to both of us ( and didnt favor me, which I thought she should have ...

... the Grimaldi family. And where Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly joined in marriage in St. Nicholas Cathedral. In the square of Monaco-Ville, the Royal Palace could be found. From here, you could see all the districts of Monaco including Fontevielle, La Condamine and Monte-Carlo. Not to mention the breathtaking view of Port Hercules, more commonly known as the Port of Monte-Carlo! Here you could see the ...

... They were very white as this year they had received over twenty feet of snow. That was a large amount of snow for the mountains. Everything toward the interior of the country was still green from the heavy winter rains. Like California, these green mountains would soon change to light brown as the hot summer would come and dry out the greenery of the hills and mountains. Later this season they would be dry and the fire danger would be high. But not now, now they were green ...

... i drept. Doar ca aia-i asa de nesimtit de mult in valuta noastra... Cum e "ultima camera" si "cu discount de la 400 de euro", nu ne simtim prea confortabili cu "the deal", asa ca speram la mai mult noroc si o luam din loc. Desi ne pare tare rau sa inaintam pe traseu si sa nu ne bucuram de el din plin. Incepe deja sa-mi fie rau de somn si oboseala si sa ma intreb oare cat de inspirati am fost ca nu am rezervat macar pentru prima noapte. Duh! E ...

... sandy cove overlooking the coats and the famous Cannes promenade which we have not moved from for the past three hours! Little did l know that during those three hours l was getting burnt to a crisp!! Getting up l soon realized too soon that l had had too much sun. Ohh it will be worth it l thought l will be so brown (me who doesn't burn hardly ever in Australia). At least l thought it was worth it until l tried to walk through the ...

... It was tricky. It wasn't like we were ready to go. Not only were we all half asleep, but we were all sprawled about with our sleeping bags and books and cards and stuff all over the place. Andy and Katie got off the train first, and I was right behind them. The other three were still onboard. No problem. We had at least a minute left. That was when the chap on the platform blew his whistle. Bollocks. Andy and Katie tried to tell him to hang on for a second, but he was having ...
