Grasse seemed uninteresting. However, it was a much needed break from the beauty of everything else we had seen in the past week. And the laundry got done.
On leaving Grasse we encountered cute village after gorgeous valley, after stunning coastline.
Mougins was a definite highlight, one of the best examples of a very tiny historic village on the top of a hill we have ever seen, and there are hundreds of them around here.
Biot was interesting to see a real life master glass blower at work.
The journey to Cannes and then on to Saint Raphael was very pretty. We skipped past Cannes, it looked very busy.
Saint Raphael is gorgeous and we caught the last hour of the Sunday market on the harbour.
The next day we did a bit of hiking in the mountains behind the seaside village of Agay and cooled off with a swim and sit on the beach there.
The drive from Saint Raphael to Cannes along the cost road is similar to the Great Ocean Road, but in a more civilised way.
We found our next home there
We finished with dinner on the Saint Raphael harbour at sunset,
Even the food was perfect today, the customary rouge vin was as nice as ever but not required to cover up for nightmarish ‘food’ this time.
Tricia says it was just because I stole her pomme frittes. Maccas was next door but plan B was not needed.
