Today has been a free day so it has been so great to have a break. It's warmer than what it has been so good to see blue skyes. We started the day wandering through the markets buying fruit for lunch and watching the french barter for the flowers and fresh produce. Then we walked up to the old chateau where we got magnificent views across Nice and the port and there was also a man made waterfall there, that wasn't that great. After a long walk we met up wit...

It has been a very long day of driving but we watched a couple of movies and had...
