Cannes - week 1


We had a great week at Cannes with Christophe's parents Papy & Mamie :)


We got to play tourists and get on the little train around the old Cannes - Adrien was super excited !










ALL ABOARD :)




We took a boat to Ile Saint Honorat, which used to be closed off to the public- the island retains a monastery which is home to about 30 monks.   it's recently been opened to tourists and visitors.

Adrien was super excited to be on the boat , he kept laughing the whole time :) He pretended to fish and loved looking at the waves.


the island was gorgeous and we enjoyed a nice walk, it was so peaceful and charming !

Adrien's favorite way to travel now on his daddy's back : )







there is now a restaurant which sells the wine made on the island by the monks.  We had a wonderful lunch... Adrien saw the lobsters in the tank and then saw them on the plate, he asked us if we were eating crab :)




All those French pastries, plus being able to eat all our favorite cheeses and bread.... Stella is definitely getting bigger and I'm getting BIG :) LOL!
Adrien entertained himself playing next to our table with the sand.
We also went to visit the Island of Sainte-Marguerite yesterday and had a wonderful time.  Unfortunately I forgot to load my memory card in my camera (super pregnant mommy brain :) ) so I could take any pictures.  We had a picnic close to the water, walked around the island, it was so relaxing and the boat rides are always fun !  We all felt relaxed and soothed !  We went to the beach today and Adrien hadn't been back since he was a year and a half.  It was fun to see him so happy and giggling at each wave !  I will post the pics soon :)
