We finally had a chance to sit down and do a little bit of planning for our two weeks together in October. We pulled out all the books and started outlining some ideas of what to do. I had a lot of ideas for the Cote d’Azur week. The week is packed. The week in Provence was much more open. As one of the books mentioned “It will be a vacation from your vacation”.

Here are some of the plans for Cote d’Azur
– Gardens in Menton
– Jardin Exotique in Monaco
– Villa Ephrussi and Walk around Cap Ferrat
– Nicoise Hill town drive
– Hanbury Garden, Apricale
– Nice Museums

Here are some of the plans for Luberon
– Market in Isle sur La Sorgue
– Cote De Rhone, Orange
– Hike in Lioux area
– Mount Ventoux drive
– Another day hike
– Roussillon/Luberon drive
– Roman ruins drive along with one of the above

We are going to drive between Nice and Luberon through the Haute Provence. We will probably come back along the Autoroute. Our last night will be in St Laurent du Var near the airport.

G was pretty excited. Unfortunately, he won’t be leaving for 4 weeks.
