The beautiful, perfect days keep coming! The month of May in the south of France is absolutely gorgeous; I can't stop taking pictures of it! So although the subjects are the same (sky, sea, the occasional rock formation or two), here are some photos from my weekend jaunt to Antibes, a small town right next to Cannes.

Antibes is another town located on the southern coast of France. While not as glamorous as Cannes, there's a lot to
like about this place. |

| I've posted so many boat pictures... it almost seems like half of the population here must own one! |

a museum. |

I also took the time to walk around the Old Town, with its small winding roads and
cobblestone streets. Many small vendors set up shop in open squares, and there was
a farmer's market as well. |

Antibes is probably only about a 15-20 minute drive from Cannes. I had the option of taking the train (10 minute ride, 3 euros each way), or the bus (30 minute ride, 1.50 euro each way). It was very convenient, and made for a great little trip on a lovely Saturday.
