I arrived in Villefranche-sûr-Mer finally this afternoon. It is absolutely stunning here! Everything I'd hoped for and more. Seriously, the French Riviera is all it's cracked up to be and lives up to it's reputation. I have barely been here for just a few hours but everything about this area is jaw dropping. I made it to my hotel, La Regence after a long night and day of travel. It's so French! The hostess at the hotel barely speaks English, so I had to dive right in, and didn't do too bad. I slept almost the entire flight so I wasn't totally exhausted and walked down to the "Vielle Ville" literally steps away from the quintessentially french waterfront - quaint little boats tied up to moorings, locals out walking their dogs, young couples hand in hand walking - you get the picture! Stopped by the Welcome Hotel bar and am sitting outside listening to a fabulous pianist play the standards. It's like I died and went to Heaven!
Anyway, more to follow - just wanted to let you know I arrived safe and sound and didn't even lose anything along the way! That's a first!
