Rallye Alpine

Living here in the Alpes Maritimes, we are in the heart of French rally country. Unfortunately we missed the Rallye De Monte Carlo (which passes the house on one stage) by a couple of weeks. Since then, we have caught a few rallies in the hills behind Nice, St Laurent, and Monaco. A few of the best shots from these events below.

Corsican Parting Shots

Nine days felt a lot longer, and love was fallen into with this jewel of an island in the Med. We covered most of the island, from the rugged coastline and fiery red rocks of the West, to the tropical aquamarine gulfs of the South and the temperate tree shrouded hills and coastline of the North.
Yesterday, we made the return trip by a six hour ferry to Nice, and prepared ourself for the harsh reality of returning to normal life on the Cote D'Azur..........hardly.
Anyway, a couple of parting shots from Cap Corse and Bastia
