A Walk by the Rocks
One can't help admiring this lady who needs a stick to walk yet is determined to get into the sea and enjoy herself.

On ne peut pas s'empêcher d'admirer cette dame qui a besoin d'une canne pour marcher et qui est encore déterminée à entrer dans la mer et s'amuser.

Life is like a bike
Life is like a ten speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use.

Paradise
A glimpse of La Spiaggetta's secluded beach at Balzi Rossi, a stone's throw across the frontier into Italy. Here you can sunbathe and swim and eat delicious food in Vera's beach restaurant. Paradise!

Un aperçu de La Spiaggetta, plage isolée à Balzi Rossi, à un jet de pierre de l'autre côté de la frontière en Italie. Ici on peut bronzer, nager et manger des plats délicieux dans le restaurant de Véra. Un Paradis!

Street Walk
On the first Sunday of each month part of the Promenade du Soleil is closed to cars. Kids play, people ride bikes, skaters skate and pretty ladies walk their dogs.

Le premier dimanche de chaque mois, la Promenade du Soleil est fermée aux voitures. Les enfants jouent, les gens font du vélo, les patineurs patinent et les jolies dames se promènent leurs chiens.
