Nice in September

At the end of the month we had a few great – and very hot – days down in Nice with Dad, Libby and Simon. We stayed in a comfortable AirBnB in the centre of Nice and enjoyed cooking and eating in the house, which works 100 p/c better with kids than restaurants at the end of long days. After dinner when the temps had dropped a bit we ventured out again for ice-creams.

One day we did a bus and easy hour long hike around to St Jean Cap Ferrat for a swim. It's mega fancy around those parts. All super cars, super yachts and super models. Not surprisingly with Monaco just around the corner. If you can ignore all the poshness, the rocky cliffs and aqua waters are otherworldly. Dad and Libby were excited to say they'd finally swum in the Med. And Stella enjoyed her second swim in the sea in possibly the cutest swimmers on the planet.
