Friday 17 February - Our first day didn't turn out as well as we had planned. We thought we would jump in the car and head towards Grasse, stopping in St Paul du Vence for breakfast. However, we soon got mired in some horrendous traffic and stuck on the wrong road due to road works. After an hour of slogging through a most unpleasant traffic jam we pulled of the highway and wound our way up the hills to the tiny town of Carros. We got directions and info at the info du tourisme than wandered around the quaint medieval city before getting back in the car and taking the winding mountain roads to St Paul. St. Paul is a medieval perched city that is a maze of art galleries, gift shops and restaurants. We wandered around the narrow streets for awhile, enjoying the views and the sunshine before heading back to the car. We made a quick stop at a roadside restaurant for lunch then carried on to Grasse.
