Well, I have not been very good about writing the blog....but I have loads of info to share on what's been happening since we arrived!
Our friends from Florida came to visit for 2 weeks....after a few days here we took a quick flight (just over an hour!) to Prague, Czech Republic
- Old Town Prague
A few days back in France and we drove over to Italy....only a 40 minute drive! We arrived early to Ventimiglia for their weekly flea market. Aside from the food market which is open and held every day under a covered roof, the weekly flea market is something to behold....it can take over 3 hours to just to browse all the different vendors: leather handbags, leather gloves, clothing, shoes, toys, sunglasses, scarves (wool, silk, blends, etc), linens, curtains, rugs...I can go on and on! After a good "once over", it's time for lunch - seaside restaurant looking back at France. It's amazing that a simple 40 minute drive brings a new culture, another language and different food! Jumping from country to country, language to language really keeps you on your toes!
Speaking of "toes", a new cultural center, "Anthea", has just been completed nearby and the rooftop cafe offers some of the best views around! Just before the ballet, we went up for wine and "nibbles"... look at the view of Old Antibes, the marina and sea! Below are links for Prague's Tourist Information and Antibes' "Anthea".
