We all decided that a day in Cannes, France sounded like the place to go today! It was only about an hour and a half train ride from where we are staying and oh, what a train ride it was! It followed the coastline all the way to Cannes!
When we got off the train and walked onto the streets, we immediately loved the feel of the city! As you know, Cannes is to France as Hollywood is to the United States!
Patte and Mike got to dip their toes into the Mediterranean Sea for the first time! While the water is absolutely gorgeous with its’ different shades of blues and aquas, the four of us agreed that there is no beach as lovely as our Anna Maria Island!
We stopped for lunch and had the most wonderful Frenchman as our waiter! He was a joy to talk to and you could tell he appreciated the fact that Americans were coming to this part of the world once again!
It wasn’t exactly the Big Red Bus tour, but we grabbed a delightful tiny train that took us around town! It ended up being the PERFECT way to see the highlights of Cannes!
This was indeed the land of the rich and famous! The street art was really cool!
And the buildings, the churches, and the views were something else!
We rode the train back to Menton and grabbed dinner at a cafe near our hotel!
It was our last night to enjoy this spectacular view and all four of us SOAKED IT IN!!
CIAO FOR NOW!
