Nice Part Deux: Electric Boogaloo




We rented a house just outside of Nice.  It was located half way up a mountain.  The above picture shows the start of the incline.
 





If you keep going up the mountain, past our house, you will see this castle.  Unfortunately we didn’t have time to go inside. Friends we met along the way told us that while the Renoir museum is under construction they have put some of the collection inside the castle.
 







The view from the top made the painful climb worth it.  In the background you can see the French Alps.
 




At the top there were several restaurants and bocci courts. 
 




There were a few bakeries in our neighborhood.  We stopped at this one several times. The bread was gorgeous.  I am definitely going to work on perfecting my French bread recipe when I get home.
