French Riviera On My Mind

On June 2010, we visited Monaco and the French Riviera (Cannes, Saint Tropez, Nice, Antibes, Saint Jean Cap Ferrat, Villefranche- sur- Mer, Menton and Saint Maxime), and today, since I’m getting anxious about the ongoing saga about the debt crisis, all I did was gaze at the thousands of pictures on my EHD. It’s refreshing [...] . . . → Read More: French Riviera On My Mind

Anti-Shopping?

While my husband claims that he is so anti-shopping, ( meaning : he’s not enamored with the idea of going around to shop on foot) he is forced into embracing it whenever we go on vacation. When we’re home, he is excused except for when he insists that it’s time for me to get some [...] . . . → Read More: Anti-Shopping?

Gone In Three Days

So you read about me confessing my penchant for Laduree macaroons. While writing this article, I’m salivating and craving for one once again but that craving has to wait till who knows when ( very soon????).

We were fortunate to have timed our trip perfectly because while there were tourists like us [...] . . . → Read More: Quaint And Charming

Vence...

Is not to be confused with Saint-Paul-De-Vence. Vence is a town in the French Riviera, that is well-discovered and appealing which is set well above the Riviera. Growth on this little town has already sprawled well beyond the Old Walls as evidently shown by the cars that are jammed in its roundabouts. Nevertheless, the breeze [...] . . . → Read More: Vence…

The Most Visited Village In France

At Saint-Paul-De-Vence driving in the center of the Old Town is prohibited. The pedestrian only rue Grande is the most interesting street which runs along the entire length of St. Paul. The stone houses are from the 16th and 17th centuries; in fact, many of them are still bearing the coats of arms placed here [...] . . . → Read More: The Most Visited Village In France
