You would think that you'd be safe on the path, up there. - The answer
I forgot what the question was, but this definitely is the answer. - Tête de Faune Chevelu
A hairy faun head in Picasso's museum in Antibes. This is IMHO one of the best paintings there. - Nature morte a la sole et aux trois oursins

There is something lovable about these guys. - Old Antibes
Well... But I am now getting more curious about that man pouring paint over his head - I spotted the same guy in Théoule ;-) - The beach at Théoule-sur-Mer

Letter boxes in Place de l'Église in Biot. Is one hole for letters and the other for pigeons? - Église Sainte-Marie-Madeleine in Biot
Some frescoes in the church of Saint Mary Magdalene in Biot. - Église Sainte-Marie-Madeleine in Biot
A very interesting church as you have to walk down to enter it. But there is a limited amount of asymmetry I can handle - and a main entrance that is off is just too off for me :-) - Street art in Biot
- Maison du bonheur in Biot
- Brugmansia (Angel's trumpet) in Biot
- Maltese cross in Biot

A lovely morning in Antibes. - Èze
I know, I know, Èze is famous for its views... but I love Èze in fog even more :-) - The hills above Èze
