Vidauban to Nice

Hi folks. We are still in France, have had major problems accessing the web and especially adding to this blog. We left the tiny cottage in the village of Vidauban and drove to the coast at Fregus but stopped at the adjoining town of St Raphael. We preferred this to the bustle of St Tropez. The weather was fine and sunny, almost hot. We walked the waterfront, past more modest boats than at St Tropez, and had a nice lunch. I managed to get off one email at the adjoining Tourist office before they closed for lunch! The French must have their extended lunch break - to hell with the tourists. Anyway we voted this town a winner. Then it was into the traffic along the coast road. Actually the traffic was not bad and trip tres interessante. The road winds it's way around lovely bays with postcard views. The downside is that it is quite slow traveling. But we had the time. After passing through Antibes and Cannes we set the GPS for our address in Nice. And this time the lady in the dash got us to the door. As expected our apartment complex was on the side of a hill/mountain above the town and the views from our apartment are amazing. Lots of ferries come and go. Today (Sunday) we took the bus into town and are having lunch. It has been raining but the sun is now out. We will walk to the waterfront and take the Petit Train around town. Love from Don and Valerie.
