Today is our last day in the beautiful Villefranche. We have enjoyed our 2 months of warm weather here, especially since we have come from NZ's winter and are now going into winter here in Europe. And it's consistently been warmer than both NZ and England. So it's always been a bit of a laugh (for me!) to turn up to my course, in London, and tell them that I was swimming yesterday! Yes, how naughty of me - but it's only fair, as they hassle my accent - so I think that makes it even. :)
Here are some pictures of the view from our lovely apartment we've been in. It's closer to the beach than our last one. So when I've been a man of leisure, I've just walked 10 minutes to the beach!
It's been a while since posting as we obviously have limited access to internet, but I've also been away quite a lot. Since the last post I've had two trips to London, one for 8 days and another for 3 days. All of which have been for my course, which I'm thoroughly enjoying and have made some great friends already. So poor Catherine is left behind each time I journey to London, however she has been enjoying her language training.
We went to Menton a couple of weekends ago, which is where Katherine Mansfield lived for a while and wrote a couple of her works. The public transport is fantastic, as we travelled all the way there on a bus (which takes about an hour along the coast towards Italy) and it only cost 2 Euro return, each! :)
So here are some pictures of Menton.
Oh yeah, I almost forgot to tell you where we are on the move to!! We are going to another language school in Avignon, which is about an hour north of Marseille. We will be there for 1 month, and then we move to Paris on the first weekend of December.
Keep in touch :)
