Here we are in Nice after six lovely days touring from Bordeaux through the Dordogne along the Cote d'Azur to Nice. Highlights along the way have been the wine tasting in St.Emilion, seeing the prehistoric cave paintings in Lascaux and the Pont du Gard. Not to mention the french food and several visits to Carrefour, obviously!
Today we returned the car and it's trains from Wednesday onwards as we travel into Italy. The camping has been fun, the camp grounds here all have amazing facilities and were a lot less crowded than they would have been a few weeks ago. Even so we are very excited about sleeping on a proper bed tonight! - the fact this is such a dry area means rock hard ground under the tent.
Tommorow it's sightseeing in Nice and then we are off to see the Cinque Terre.
A bientot! - photos to follow

Great to hear you're having fun so far. I hope the wine in Bordeaux made the hard ground that little bit more comfortable at night! St Emillon is one of our favourite spots in France. Looking forward to next update before we take off to Africa.
