Just call us Harry and Lloyd

We arrived in Nice late Monday night and our main mission was to ride mopeds along the coast into as many different cities as we could. As always with traveling, you can't count on the weather but thankfully on Wednesday it was a warm and sunny day.... perfect for mopeding.

We drove west along the French Riviera from Nice into Antibes, Cannes, and St. Raphael and saw the most beautiful views. Anyone who has ever seen Dumb and Dumber can only imagine what mopeding up giant hills looks like. For those of you who cant, let me give you an idea...

somehow for 8 hours Adrienne and I fit on a moped that was clearly made for 1 person


Lauren's was a bit roomier



Red Rocks along the Coast



why not do some yoga?

Ironically, the next day Nice got more snow then they have in 20 years. We decided to make the most of our day and take a train into Italy and get an authentic Italian meal in a cute little port town called Ventigmilia. When you can't tour around a city, the best thing to do is eat your way through it.

Our last couple of days we enjoyed going into a small port town called Ville Franche, where we had a picnic lunch right on the water. We also made our way into Menton for a lemon festival and back to Antibes for a Chocolate festival. We arrived back in Geneva late last night and are flying into Athens tomorrow. Hopefully we can have a repeat of mopeding fun in the Greek Islands...
