This is a place for great tips and links to neat websites that will add to the excitement and “memory making” of your adventures! So, let’s begin with train travel…
Part of our passion for travel has to be the anticipation of the “adventure” of foreign train travel.
One of the things that makes it easier to “go it alone” and not use a tour, has been the discovery of a great website – seat 61. If you travel a lot by train, you probably know about the seat 61. Well, the website is great! It comes highly recommended, by a husband who would rather research great destinations than anything.
Le Hameau: “hôtel du charmé“
A little bit of heaven awaits you, perched high above the speed and madness of Nice.
Nestled on a lush, winding road that carries you through Provencal beauty we all dream about, Le Hameau ,Vence, France is a little piece of paradise – a visual feast unmatched in its beauty and charm.If you love gardens and flowers, and luxuriating in the warmth of French Country decor and flavors – this is for you!
Whether for several days or just an overnight, it is unforgettable.
As night begins to fall and the moon rises above the glowing Medieval towers of nearby St. Paul de Vence, the Mediterranean lights up below you, like a jeweled crown, as you sip wine in the garden or on your personal balcony. Then,… the birds sing you to sleep.
With weather almost always permitting in the South of France, a luscious continental breakfast awaits you in the garden.
French lavender permeates the air and its memory lingers long after your departure. This is a place dear to our hearts and to which we return, with great anticipation, knowing we are always so cared for during our stay.
(And, we should mention that it was a favorite of Marc Chagall!)
