Friday we were on the move: Barry left us to return to Canada, and the kids and I flew to the French Riviera with my Dad.
Shortly after take off we could see the White Cliffs of Dover and soon after we saw the beach near Calais. The English Channel is quite narrow. Though we flew over the length of France, we couldn't see much due to clouds until we were over the mountains. Dad and I loved the view, but the kids were more interested in drawing and playing video games. Why is it that we don't appreciate some truly spectacular sites when we are young?
Because we had to land flying east, the plane came south over Cannes, turned around over the sea and back along the French Riviera coastline. You could see sailboats and yachts cruising in the water, and you could almost smell the money from 10,000 feet.

We grabbed a cab to our 2 bedroom apartment and settled in. It's about a 7 minute walk from this great VRBO find to the beach via the Old Town. After we settled in, we headed out for a walk and dinner at a Cambodian restaurant. Travelling on budget may be a challenge here. I guess we'll just have to relax on the beach for 3 days...
We miss you already, Barry.
