Yesterday we had a nice lunch nearby in the pretty village of Valbonne after spending an hour or so in the hilltop village of Gourdon. We even conned Sarah and Ben into a guided tour of the old chateau of Gourdon, a site that has a military existence going back to Saracen days. There were quite a few French visitors, a good mixture of locals and the occasional English couple in both places. The weather has now recovered from several days last week of high winds and storms and summer is just hanging in there at about 25 degrees or so. This afternoon we dropped down into Cagnes-sur-mer for a laze on the stony beach and a refreshing dip in the sea which was very pleasant. There were plenty of people about and of course the talk was all about the age at which women should or should not cover their breasts and give up the bikini look. We will renew this discussion over the next week or so as we find other beaches to enjoy.
