Happy Anniversary to my best friend and partner in crime. 💖 How the time flies when you're having fun! The Pista ciclabile della Riviera Ligure is a pedestrian and cycle path, in the province of Imperia , between San Lorenzo al Mare and Ospedaletti with a flat, scenic path 24 km long. It was created by converting the coastal route of the old railway single track Genoa-Ventimiglia , decommissioned in 2001 and moved inland. We took the train to Arma di Taggia located approximately 1/2 way along the cycle path. Friday we biked the West half and Saturday the East side. It can be done in 1 day but we choose to explore the different villages and stop for lunch and of course take pictures along the way. We also watched some of the Barrel racing on the beach...don't see that everyday! Enjoy the slideshow below...if you have the patience to wait for it to load. Russian Orthodox Cathedral in Nice Tried to see this last year but it was enclosed in plastic for renovation. Curious what people think of this article on terrorism? Should the media dial it down? Do you know people who have changed their travel plans?
http://blog.ricksteves.com/blog/terrorism-whats-the-smart-response/ Tour of Grotte de Saint-Cézaire. We were given a guided tour by an old man who owns the property and spent many years exploring it. How neat would that be to find under your house!?! Vallée de la Siagne - loop hike from the village of St-Cézaire-sur-Siagne. We descended into a canyon, following a peaceful water canal making our way to the turquoise river below. Here we found an amazing waterfall that joined with an old roman bridge.
Had a blast hosting Lisa over Carnival!
Stayed in a funky artsy flat in the old village of Nice with a view of the cathedral. We ate well, sampled every limoncello stand at the citrus festival and are still finding confetti from Carnival.
