Maritime Alps Trek
Rather than having 2 weeks of non stop relaxation and swimming at Menton, we (or is that 'I' ..??) like to squeeze in some adventure and exercise. 2 years ago we stayed a night at the Valmasque Refuge and got totally soaked in a massive thunderstorm on the way up...so this time we thought we'd extend the trip to a 3 day circuit (but with decent waterproof clothing), and including a days high level walk through the famous Vallee des Merveilles between the Refuges of Merveilles and Valmasque.
Well, it didn't rain, we had a load of laughs, saw some wonderful things, toned our legs, got some great memories, had some awful nights sleep, and then we went back to the Med for some more swimming and relaxation (Menton photos below).

Ah, those nights of extremely poor sleep. How I miss them. Of course we each have our different ways of coping with those communal sleeping arrangements. Mine is chemical.
