- Go, Julian!
Avenue de la Condamine, between Col d'Èze and Col des 4 chemins. There's only one Julian :-) - Mirage
Wonderful hot road mirage. Coming from a mountainous country, I am not used to such long flat straight roads! - Pont de Saint-Nazaire
One of the longest bridges in France, crossing the Loire. Including the access viaducts, it measures 3356 m. - Route D673
One cannot not stop here. What a lovely place. On the road D673 just south of Calès. - Valbonne, Rue Grande
Rue Grande in Valbonne. A lovely stroll in rain before a delicious dinner. - Valbonne
Another lovely street in the "Manhattan" of Valbonne. - Heavy rain
Heavy rain season already started. - Rue Vieille Boucherie in Biot
One of the many pretty little streets in Biot. - Impasse le Redon in Biot
Another lovely detail in Biot. - Rue des Tines in Biot
And another lovely corner in Biot. - Place des Arcades in Biot
Recently renovated place des Arcades. Notice the periodicity in the randomness! - Antibes
One of the lovely streets in the old Antibes. - Anibes
Another lovely street in the old Antibes. - Rue du Haut Castelet in Antibes
And yet another magical street in the old Antibes. - Château de Chenonceau
The avenue leading to the castle. Great shade in the summer heat. - Mont Dol
What a lovely house - with a curved corner. - Mont Saint-Michel
Plenty of lovely souvenir shops and places to eat in the town, but some of them closed fairly early in the evening. - Pont de Saint-Nazaire
Well, it is a beautiful bridge. - On the road
We returned to the Alps on the way back. And this is a lovely sign, from here you can go to Paris (obviously), Bordeaux, Montpellier, and Lyon. - Pointes d'Orient
View from the Galibier road towards Les Pointes d'Orient (2942 m) and Crête de Lacha (2938 m). - Col du Galibier

Col du Galibier has a special place in my heart. I've cycled up the Col twice (once from each side), and driven up so often... I cannot possibly remember how many times I've been up there. But it never disappoints. - Le Col de l'Échelle
Being a fan of Alex Hugo, I wanted to see Vallée de la Clarée. This is already towards Italy, behind Col de l'Échelle. Oddly enough, the border is not on the col but in the valley below. - Le Mauvais Pas
A steep descend towards Italy - and then home. - Èze
I know, I know, Èze is famous for its views... but I love Èze in fog even more :-) - Èze
The clouds are rising so we even got a bit of a view. - Èze
Up towards Col d'Èze. Now that is a steep climb! - Biot
Rue de la Poissonnerie in Biot.
