Today we arrived in Menton France. The border guards couldn’t even be bothered to look at us…
Tomorrow I head home and Diane and Slavica head north to Macon, eventually to Paris. I get croissants for breakfast, they get new adventures.
The ride today took us along an amazing 24km bike path, complete with good bike path tunnels. A couple were almost 2km long, but well lit, so fine.
Endless paths, with cafes along the way. Check out this cafe fence!
We started the day in Imperia with a lovely sunrise.
I saw a cool cathedral so made my way there only to find it looks better from the distance. So then I got to play “hill town street bingo” for quite a while before I could figure it how to get out of town.
Eventually we arrived in Menton where nobody got the memo that summer ended several weeks ago. It’s lovely here!
Menton is a very comfortable place. We love it here. Walked all around.
In the evening, we walked down to the beach. It’s like Disneyland for adults…
Great place for watching the sunset with a drink in hand.
We’re off to sleep now. Enjoy!
Beautiful photos! Have a good trip back! –a.s.
Awesome trip. We’ve talked about checking out that bike trail. Now I really want to ride it. Train ride home?? Maybe you can return to Menton for the citrus festival this winter
gorgeous scenes once again Sanborn…what a fun place to explore! xoxoPeggy
Thanks! Happy to be home. My own bed, alone…Whew. Tired!
I’ll check out the festival. We loved Menton, perhaps also because we got there early enough to actually see the town. The bike paths and the SS1 (Via Aurelia) were great. The road was busy near the end, but never very steep.
Certainly worth visiting again when I have more time. We loved Menton.
Loved your pics- and I understand “street Bingo”!! I’ve been thinking lately that maybe I need a little break from travel, but when I see your pics, it makes me want to be there! I love cycling in Europe-
Yes. I have the very same problem. I need to stop distracting myself from my “real” life with all these trips, BUT…!
