Cannes - week 2

Adrien really loved riding the carousel during our vacation - he tried all his favorite rides: trains, trucks, and motorcycle !  So much fun to see him squeal of delight, waving to us at each turn and blowing kisses :)

He tasted his first "chocolat liegoix"  (chocolate ice cream, chocolate sauce, whip cream and toasted almonds .... mmmhh!)  He loved it !

Hugging Papy :)

Chris and Adrien had such a blast in the pool

We went twice  to the beach  and Adrien loved it !  He was 18months old the last time we went so he discovered the waves .  At first he was cautious but he quickly loosened up :) His favorite things were to kick the waves, jump at each wave and play with the sand.

He really loved it and so did we !  We all got to relax and enjoy the soothing sound of the ocean.  What a nice treat !!

Fun lunch at the beach :)

Life is GOOD !!

Adrien got to see his other cousin LEA who lives in Amsterdam and came for 2 days to visit.

She loves taking pictures and was pretty good at it too !

Adrien was happy to play with Lea and hang out with her !

Chris got to enjoy the ocean and relax.  He works so hard - I'm glad he got to take a little break from it all.

Loved seeing them play together !!

After a wonderful day at the beach, Papy and Mamie treated us all to a wonderful dinner - they had reserved a chef for that evening who cooked a delicious meal in their home.  It was a great evening ! We got to all chat and Christophe's mom was able to also enjoy the evening which made it even more special.

Can you tell they're father and son ? :)

We got the same tee shirt for Chris and Adrien :)

We had a such wonderful stay...  such nice memories! Some of Adrien's favorite moments were:  kicking the waves, feeding the little fishes, eating ice cream on the "croisette", playing with his daddy in the pool,  and of course spending quality time with Papy and Mamie: calling everyone to the table for breakfast :"a table ",  eating delicious meals,  and really enjoying each other's company   :) 

 We often wish we lived closer to both our parents but we're thankful for the time we do get to have with them!  It makes it that more special !
