secret garden

Les Cygnes

A rather nice day - warm, bright and breezy. We have blokes in fitting new tiles into the shower room - the noise of the angle grinder competing with some very loud music. We  went for a swim. These two resident swans had found a tasty patch of sea lettuce. Then I went on for a walk around the circuit major. 
In between there have been  emails hurtling between France and Ireland. We're all set for an action-packed few days. We drive up to Dublin demain and stay overnight, catching a morning flight to Nice on Wednesday. Time for a quick freshen up and cherché la frock before going off to cocktails I must be limited to one or I'll peak far too early! I'm still scarred by the Pimms on my 21st birthday and that didn't end well  and a meal organised by cousin numero un (the birthday boy). Jeudi, we are off to lunch avec cousin deux, then a chill then on to the birthday bash at Adjuna plage - ubers at midnight way past our bedtime. Vendredi, dejeuner at cousin trois and then I hope we get a chance to have a look around Eze.  They all live at Eze sur Mer but there is also Eze village - a medieval hilltop settlement, incredibly picturesque with teeny streets and very steep roads. There must be a holy well somewhere. There is the potential for another party ce soir ( la theme blanche)  but I reckon we might be trés fatigué by now. Fly back to Dublin on Samedi apres midi, stay overnight and arrive chez nous le Dimanche. You can see how the Franglais is kicking in nicely- we are amazed by how much French we have mis remembered. A beintot mes amis , I'm off piste until next Monday.
