Aribeau Tuesday 17th

Quiet morning then Chelsea and I were driven down to the local village to have lunch and a bit of a break!

We sat opposite on the terrace,looking out over Grasse.Chelsea had the duck and I had the veal ,crepes for sweets and a glass of wine ! Tres Bon !!

Before lunch we walked through he alleys looking at the houses,few B an B s as we'll,good to know for future reference!

 

Windy night last night but hazy and glarey today!

 

Our view from the terrace during lunch!

The other local restaurant!

Pic below has this sign above it!

Lovely mural for the town on the same wall as the plaque!

I think I've developed a fetish for entrances!

 

 

 

 

Should have stuck up Australia but I couldn't find a spare plank lying around!!

Pots of all sizes,hanging around!

Found another muggy!

 

Came across the local village cemetery and couldn't resist opening the gate and going in,tiny but very interesting!

A monument for the soldiers,"A child of France died for his country "

Local water stop,find these a lot in Italy as well,water is old and tastes great!!!

Look at the window to the right of the orange bordered window,can you make out what it is?!

Bonjour,here I ' is,he or she sat perched looking out ,every now and again would get a bit excited with whomever walked by, I held my breath thinking it might fall out,but it wandered in and out on window sill like it had been doing it for years! Amazing!

Entrance to a local hotel that Madonna often hires out,Chelsea went in the night we arrived for directions,people sitting in their finery having dinner and Chelsea rocks up in her flip flops,parlait vous anglais,need google ,we are lost! They were great and we were on our way although she couldn't get over the live horse inside the hotel restaurant,but her father had horse shit on his shoes so we believed her!!!!!
