Gone to the Beach....












Villefranche sur Mer, France....my destination

I'm packed & I'm ready.
today is the long long awaited day....
I am heading for France at last.

four weeks of the beach, of books....of sunshine bliss

simple days
hot days
endless days
family days
beautiful crystal clear Mediterranean water 
ice cream days
double ice cream days
no make up, TV, newspapers, hairdryer
no phone
talking, playing, listening
thinking....lots of it
some planning
sleeping
reading
walking
running

baguettes, pain aux raisins, brie, peaches, olives
jambon, fromage, saucisson
ice cold drinks
a little wine
snails

bonjour, merci, au revoir, madame, monsieur

Cap Ferrat, Nice, Eze, Monaco, Beaulieu sur Mer

double decker trains
the flea market
Saturday morning food market
fireworks from the yachts in the harbour late at night

eat, read, talk, sleep....and repeat.

See you soon :)
