It's 4:00pm and I'm sitting on the balcony of a fourth floor apartment in Nice overlooking the deep blue Mediterrranen Sea -- finally getting what all the fuss was about re the "south of France" -- probably as close to heaven as I'll ever get! The temperature ... Read more >

Moved on to the southwestern France coastal city of Perpignan and what a welcome change -- this is how the south of France should be. Staying in a lovely ground floor flat decorated in a Moroccan theme and a patio covered in a grape arbor -- just ... Read more >

Moved on the next day to a tiny place called Bailly -- doeesn't show-up on GPS and you need to go to the highest resolution on Googlemaps (and know where you're looking) to even find it (which made it real challenging to find the first day). It's ... Read more >
