What a beautiful port with many a cruise ship and private sail boats lining the docks.
A quick simple breakfast on board as we don't want to spoil out appetites for a French lunch. As the port is not setup for such a big cruise ship we will be taken a shore by the tender boats.
Walking the esplanade for a couple of km overlooking it's several little crowded beaches first of all for some good old fashion PERVING....
Sun and sun drenched French beautiful people everywhere, lots of one piece swimwear, well just the little bottom bits and I mean little bottom
bits everywhere, there was lot of good eye candy for Sands to enjoy also.
So we head into the town centre to give our eyes a rest from the sun!!! It's a pretty city with old and modern building and many hints that it is also a film festival town.
Back to the main beachy area for a bit of lunch while overlooking the ocean. Got to have a French inspired lunch and we find a great little spot in the shade still with a great view of the playgrounds of the French Riviera. So some French champaign to quench the thirst after the walk and a La Fregate salad to share as a starter. A salad of some shaved smoked duck breast, French beans and green leaves, tiny tomatoes, foie gras and walnuts yumo and oh so French.
Following Sandy had the moistest salmon with a lemon sauce, for me the mussels.
Mussels are a French traditional dish so I just had to have them and where better in beside the sea. The bowl was full of about 200 little mussels about the size of your thumb nail so into it I go. They had been steamed off in white wine and sweated diced onion bliss bliss bliss, oh and that view
