Rooms with a view!!

Back from a lovely few days in the South of France,hot sunshine and visits to lovely places along the Riviera,Villefranche sur Mer,St.Jean Cap Ferrat,Menton and a crazy train to Entrevoux high above Nice in the mountains called the Chemin de Fer de Provence! Just a sample of the highlight, the Villa and Gardens Ephrussi de Rothschild,with its 9 themed gardens laid out over 7 acres overlooking the beautiful bay of Villefranche, more to follow!



The musical fountains were switched off here so it was safe to stand on the stepping stones!
Stunning!

The French garden with waterfall and musical fountains!
I am blending in here with the greenery!
