Walking near Vence and dining in Antibes


Since the weather was glorious today, as it often is around here, we decided to go for another walk. We opted for the Circuit de Malvan, near Vence (so only about 20 minutes' drive from Cagnes).

The walk started near a little Chateau near Vence, which these days houses a museum. The walk took us through some nice forest scenery to the Chapel de St-Raphael, near the ruined village Malvans (which gave the name for the walk). The walk then took us along a valley, which crossed the Malvan "river" (stream would be more appropriate), and back towards Vence, through some nice and gentle hills. So a very nice walk all in all, although it was a bit cloudy...



In the evening, we went to my parents place in Antibes for a nice fish dinner. Jan and Sirpa, cosmopolitan friends of my parents (Jan is Polish, Sirpa is Finnish, they live in Canada, and also have a house in Honduras), were visiting.
