Honeymoon Part 1 - Nice, France

6/10/13

during our year of wedding planning, we came to a point where we had to sit down and plan out our honeymoon ideas. Like most we started with a map, some markers and some resource books from which we made a list of all the places we would love to visit until we finally narrowed it down to the French Riviera and Tuscany. After all was said and done we  had a sweet honeymoon planned and long list of "other" anniversary trips we would tackle.

the day after our wedding we picked up our bags and boarded a plane to the beautiful and bright south of France. Nice was the city we decided to make our hub for the first week of our holiday. It's a central location that's easy to get to with many great small towns nearby. my husband LOVES the beach, and well, me not so much (not a huge fan of super hot weather), so this was the perfect combo actually. The air was warm with a nice breeze, stunning art deco architecture everywhere, an historic old town, beautiful but rocky beaches, and excellent food for sampling. We were lucky enough to have a rental car the whole trip, so we planned some day trips –  the beautiful medieval art down of Eze, Cannes for the film festival and the perfume capital Grasse. All in all, it was the perfect start to this honeymoon.
