 | 7th Jun 2009 | Daniela's Garden lunch Buffet
What better setting than this? We had THE most lovely afternoon eating and drinking and sunbathing (wots new?)with that blue blue sea twinkling behind us. Oh....and finally pictures of my new (old) Barchetta. Just perfect for cruising the Corniche!

Eve of Siamak's birthday, the Grand prix was replaced this year with Tone's new barbq evening. My flash did not work properly but I quite like the muted look!

 | 8th Mar 2009 | Raquetting - circuit de Fontanable
Circuit was blocked with snow so we had to come back half way through but it made a good long trek. Really weird having drinks in the cafe afterwards with the snow piled right up the windows so we were sitting in the half dark. Just us, Siamak's daughter and Marti

 | 28th Feb 2009 | CITRUS FESTI VAL GARDEN DISPLAY MENTON 2009
Two years since the last viewing but once again marvelous with a musical theme throughout. How many hours must it take to rubber band all those little lemons and oranges onto just one giant guitar? ( And then on to Nathalie's Birthday party at Monaco afterwards.)

Hot and sunny just like last year - same place (some) different people.

 | 21st Feb 2009 | Trip on the big wheel Nice over the carnival square
Finally summoned up courage to go up on the big wheel (not scary at all as it happens) and the views were great. Felt like a tourist, especially with my 'Barbe à Papa' (candyfloss).
See how many people were on the beach - not bad for February.

Stunning snow 2 metres deep. Great day out save Liz's tumble head first down the slope. Lucky not have ended up with a cracked head!

 | 3rd Feb 2009 | Plateau de la Justice 25 January 2009
Short healthy walk to enjoy a break from the winter rains. Catherine and Cousin Michael over on holiday. Jayne is not really a Tibetan peasant lady...she had earache!

JUST TO REMEMBER

 | 1st Jan 2009 | New Years Day 2009
After a 4pm bedtime on New Years Eve, This 10 kilometre walk along the coast from Menton to Monaco was just what we all needed. (The 31st was a lovely dinner party in Monaco, watching a few fireworks from behind the palace and and then dancing to the band at the Casino Monte Carlo with our bottles of champagne, and then a few lickle bars....hic!. )We had lunch in the sun and watched the sky divers parachuting down onto the beach next to us at Roquebrune and finally ended up seeing the Monaco christmas lights before finally wending our way home. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
