  3. Some of my friends fail to understand why I keep going back year after year to this most beautiful place. Your photographs should convince them why.
    Oh, and can we keep this place as secret as possible from the hoards of holiday makers that flock to resorts west of here?!!

  4. I agree with Graeme: not to tell too much how Menton is precious, or we won't be able to enjoy it peacefully anymore! :o)

  6. Your photo looks like a fine watercolor... An alley scene would not be as exquisite anywhere else in the world! Love the soft pastels accented with charcoal and black... The sign is incredibly appropriate for this scene!

  7. What beautiful colors! Even the laundry contributes to the scene.

  8. Why is it that laundry hanging in an alley way in Menton is so charming, while here it is so frowned upon??? I love this photo...love the sign below the garments...d'Art!!!

  10. Really looking forward to welcoming you to Menton, Bob. This is an iconic scene in Menton with the basilica just showing at the end of this tiny street. We'll make sure you get to this very place.
