Around Cap d'Antibes with dad and Berit

Berit had joined my dad in Antibes, to help out cleaning up the flat. Not an easy task, given that nobody's lived there for over a year, and the fact that there is a LOT of stuff there, still.

We decided to go for a walk around Cap d'Antibes, to give dad and Berit a bit of a break. So I took the train down to Antibes, where dad picked me up at the train station, and whisked us off to Plage de la Garoupe, where the walk starts. The walk around Cap d'Antibes is a really a great one, showcasing some of the gorgeous nature the French Riviera has to offer, just a stone's throw away from downtown Antibes.

We walked all the way from the beach, to the Eden Roc villa, which is where the coastal footpath ends. Apart from the beautiful views and the gorgeous nature, there are tantalizing views of villas, mostly hidden away behind high walls. Cap d'Antibes is probably the most coveted area to live on the French Riviera, which means you basically have to be a millionaire to afford even a modest abode here.

The coastal footpath done, we took the direct path back to the car, which gives you a bit more views of those over-the-top villas.

For lunch, we decided to try out a place in Juan-les-Pins called Le Petit Brunch. Finding parking was a real pain, we ended up parking quite far from the restaurant, which did give us the opportunity to show Juan-les-Pins to Berit, while we walked to the restaurant. Not that there is that much to show - I'm not such a big fan of Juan-les-Pins. The restaurant was good enough, we had a nice shared platter for a starter, and some good seafood for a main course.

All in all, a great day out!
