Day 23

Antibes

sunny 1 °C

We got up a little earlier today and went over to our other apartment for breakfast! We set off on the motorbikes for a tour around the local area, but the traffic in Antibes was very heavy. Out of the town there were some lovely hilltop-villages and twisty roads.

We headed up into the mountains a bit and found the Ski resort of Greolieres for an afternoon on the slopes. Ed got a little stuck in the snow and ice and mud in the car park, so I went over to help him out and he coated me in slush!

There were surprisingly long queues for the lifts everywhere as well and then we twigged that it was probably half term and that would explain the traffic on the coast earlier as well. We finished Skiing around 5pm, got changed, grabbed a cuppa and headed back down the mountain into the sunset.

95 miles today which takes our total to around 4000 miles now of the 16000 or so we estimate for the trip (I'll refine those numbers later)
