After our visit to the Cinque Terre which I described in the last post we set off along the Riviera Highway through Italy and France for Antibes 200 miles/320 ks away to see Gaz and the
super-yacht of which he is a Chief Engineer.

We booked in at a splendid hotel Gaz had found for us:
Hotel Josse.
 |
| The bland looks belied the interior |
 |
| Comfy modern rooms with the best bathroom possible in an hotel |
 |
| Reception area |
 |
| Breakfast on the terrace served by the most chic person ever to have served me breakfast |
Then wandered through the wonderful old town of Antibes

with the new work of art mentioned in Gaz's blog

until we went for dinner at this
delightful restaurant run by two ladies who seemed to do everything including turn away a lot of potential customers (because they were full) and treat each customer as the most important they had ever had. The Girls decided this was the best restaurant of the holiday so far.

One can't have an untidy beach now can one?
