there is a new Wheeler Dealer on tonight and Peter is very excited. it is the car show that we watch every night. but, to iChat,is the start of a new series and refurbishing of an old Fiat Spider...should be a blast!!!!!!!

Waking up at 10am, we ate a wonderful breakfast of banquettes and tea. We then went for a 40minuterun along the Porte.It was sunny , about20 degrees,with a soft breeze, and just wonderful for running.Lots of people were out walking and enjoying the beautiful day. Both of us really enjoyed our run and we then climbed the 30 steps back to our apartment. I tell you that vertical climb is the hardest part of any run. once back at our place,we sat on our gorgeous patio, enjoying this amazing view of the ocean and palm trees. After lunch, we walked down to the old village of Menton, and climbed many old stairs and alleyways. I have some amazing pictures to share soon. The cobbled streets are beautiful and many streets have stone mosaics. We visited a very ornate old church and some art galleries. We then arrived at the city center.Themarkets, carousels, and smells of Menton, greeted us. After purchasing some groceries, we found this lovely restaurant, Deux Anges. The menu was lovely and we ordered spaghetti, for Peter, and gnocchi for myself. We finished with fruit salad, for me, and real tiramisu for Peter .

Tonight, it was raining for the first time since our arrival,and we, again, climbed the 30 steps back to our place. The wheeler dealer show is now on....A demain!
