Our good friends Valerie and Gilles, with their wonderful kids, were visiting France on their yearly tour. They relocated from the sunny South of France to the equally sunny California a few years ago (which has given us the perfect excuse to visit California a couple of times over the last few years).
Their "Tour de France", which lasts several weeks, is always a rather impressive odyssey, and finding a time slot during which to meet them is always a big challenge. Hence, we ended up meeting up for some pizza on the beach on Cagnes-sur-Mer on this Thursday evening - it's about the only common time slot we could find!
Which was quite fine, actually. The weather was certainly perfect for it, with the weather somewhat cooling down for the evening. Hector and Celian love the water, so they kept themselves busy, while us adults caught up with the latest news. And of course, everybody loves pizza ;)
After the pizza, we had some ice cream, and then, for the grand finale, some rather DIY fireworks (apparently the fireworks had been purchased in San Francisco's China Town, which may explain why about 30% of the stuff didn't work at all!)
So, to summarize then, great to catch up with our dear friends again!
