We rented a static caravan in a little town called Biot, known for its glass blowers, which the girls loved to watch, and just down the road from Fernand Leger's museum and house.
I love the way art and sculptures are dotted around everywhere you go. Just outside our campsite was this amazing mural on the wall made from porcelain.....
Beautiful gardens and streets in the town of Biot......
Our little lady trying to catch up to Daddy and big sis....
The wedding was as beautiful and scenic. Starting with the service in a little chapel in Gourdon set among the mountains, about an hours drive from Nice (a little scary driving along the narrow mountainside roads but completely worth it). This was the view from outside the chapel overlooking the mountains towards the sea...
The happy and beautiful couple....
Sightseeing in St Paul de Vence. Our little ones can't resist a cat, strays are even better as they come for a stroke : )
Sampling the local ice cream, we worked our way through a lot of amazing flavours....
More public art sculptures and a game of boules in the background. It's such a relaxed way of life and definitely made me want to learn French and re-locate
Our last day was spent soaking up some culture at the Fernand Leger museum.... to be honest I didn't know much about Leger but his big bold eye catching designs won me over. Plus the museum was large and airy with plenty of space for the kids to run around so it was a stress free time to soak in the artwork and sculptures.
this very cute picture was taken just before they ran up some private stairs and they look so innocent!
and some more sculpture and water displays in Nice....
Although we had a great time I don't think we'll be attempting it again any time soon : )
