Leave the tranquil wooded hills of the Cote d’Azur hinterland, zig zag down the soft shadowed Fir tree lined lanes and relax by the colourful fruit and flower market. “A thick slice of ham with my baguette and café s’il vous plait madame”.
Enjoy the syncopation of Jazz Bands in the town squares. A cool rose, with shell fish for lunch at a bistro by the petit harbour. In the afternoon a tasting, Cote d’Rhone or Bandol, in nearby vineyards...
Feel the warm evening breeze. Watch the sunset as the vermillion ball slides into a now aquamarine sea. Through your open restaurant window listen to the music of waves lapping sandy shores. See the fairy lights from the yachts masts swing across static stars staring from their bed of midnight blue. Enjoy the gastronome. Coq au Vin and roll your tongue around the complex notes of your Chateau Neuf du Pape.
Bon appetite. Bon voyage.
