Just hanging around Beaulieu, April 19

Today we got up with the intention of taking the bus to Nice, possibly to bike along the waterfront.  But, we started walking and, one foot in front of the other, found ourselves walking along the road toward Cap Ferrat.  We did see an amazing sight, three huge, French military seaplanes landing in the bay twice. Too bad we were quite far away to take good photos, but it was pretty awesome.

We did not want to walk around the whole peninsula whichnit seemed likely if we stayed on the road, so took quite an abandoned Chemin des Moulins over the ridge, past the Rothschild gardens and down along the sea walk.  We walked for about an hour before finally getting back to the sea and sitting down for a rest.  We watched life go by on land and sea.  Then, we turned around and walked back to Beaulieu. We were gone over three hours.  We went to the store and made a huge salad and spent the rest of the day reading and following the events in Boston as one of the bombers has died, but the other is on the run.
