Reflections
We've not finished in Roquebrune village (see second paragraph) - but just for a couple of days I fancied coming back down to Menton (no good reason, I just thought we might all like to be by the sea) - so I hope you approve. Here we are in the port below the Old Town. It's a glorious day after so much rain - the autoroute was closed above Roquebrune - falling rocks, dangerous boulders that needed to be brought down. The train track was closed at Eze just along the coast. Heavy rain after a long dry spell is always dangerous and driving up and down the valleys, you really have to take care. I've had to avoid three falls on the Route de Gorbio already - but look at today - absolute heaven.
As for Roquebrune, we'll go back in a couple of days and then we start a full tour of the 10th century Château. I promise you it'll be worth the wait.

Ah... the Sea....
ReplyDelete...still jealous inspight of the rock falls.
ReplyDeleteOh, I know it will be worth the wait, everything you post is!
ReplyDeleteOh, those blues... As you said, absolute heaven.
... shall we take a boat and sail around?
ReplyDeleteLovely, here under dull damp skies and floods in York, just what I needed to see, Freda
ReplyDeleteIf I click my heels together 3 times and repeat "there is no place like the sea", do you think I will be transported here! Great shot! I can't wait for the Chateau pictures!!
ReplyDeleteI love the beauty and peace these boats inspire. Wonderful reflections.
ReplyDeleteLooks clear and calm now!
ReplyDeleteLove the reflection in the water.
ReplyDeleteThis makes me long for a trip to the seashore (Florida would even be fine by me!). Very pretty!
ReplyDeleteThis would make a lovely postcard!
ReplyDeleteAs you say, I'm always happy to be by the sea and yours is so blue...
ReplyDeleteThank you, Jilly for having read my post about Erika and other monsters and taken time to comment.
the sea is always refreshing to look at no matter what it's up to! So calm in the photo, with little GiGi and the other boats, and the lovely reflections.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea - looks absolutely glorious and fresh. Do take care on the roads though Jilly.
