Menton is a beautiful place for people of a certain age, and I was amazed how well older people managed the steep streets and stairs. I was passed more than once by ladies 20 yrs. older laden with grocery bags and wearing high heels. They were not even breathing hard! I do not particularly care for the new paving stones on the rue Longue but they do make it easier for people to get around. I cannot help but wonder what Julius Caesar would think! It would have made it much easier to subdue Gallia.
But I still think it's a good area to live when you are old.
