Day 34 - October 4 - Villefranche-sur-Mer
Today was our lazy day. We got up, blogged, checked email and decided to walk into the center of Villefranche-sur-Mer. We got some coffee and pastries and walked along the shoreline. We sat on the beach for a while chatting and gazing at the ocean and people watching.
Decided to some lunch and stopped at a cafe by the ocean- Brassiere LePalmiers. Of course, all the cafes on the beach are more expensive than normal cafes in town. We each had a pizza, beer, and cappuccino. David's allergies were bothering him so we went to the Pharmacy near our hotel to get meds. They spoke little English, didn't know what Allegra was, but as soon as I said Claritin, they pulled some allergy medicine off the shelf. Seemed to work for him and we went back to our room to relax some more.
We weren't that hungry for dinner but wanted some wine for sitting on the balcony, however the stores were all closed when we went in search of some. We went to Le Roxy near our hotel and thought we would get wine and split a dinner. Well, the owner would not let us split a dinner (she said only children could). We weren't happy as we had already opened the wine and couldn't get up and leave. So we each had a meal and were quite full when were finished.
Before dinner, we had walked down towards the Citadel and watched some people playing bocce. It was our last night here and we wanted to enjoy the last few hours. After dinner, we went back to pack and get to bed.
