OUR FRIENDS JIM and Dana are visiting from Oh Canada and we just thought we'd throw-up a few photos. Yesterday was especially busy as we tried (successfully) to squeeze a whole lot into a single day. After a quick trip to the boulangerie for fresh bread and croissants, we ventured out for a day that included: a drive through Nice, a stop high above the sea near Eze, lunch in Monaco (at the playground, as usual) and a quick walk-around, a drive to Italy to watch the end of the Milan-Sanremo cycling race (Lance was there but Mark Cavendish won), dinner at a little pizzeria in Sanremo (pizza for the kids, lasagna bolognese for the men), a giggle-filled drive home, and a movie for the grown-ups at night. Not a bad day if you ask us.
Here's a few photos from the last couple of days. I'm going to have to get Jim's camera to show the video he shot of the final sprint at the Milan-Sanremo.
Um, there should be four people in this photo. What is Henry doing?

Madison, Macy, and Henry in Gourdon.

Some very, very, very nice Team Saxo Bank bikes. I want one.It's always fun to have friends visit (especially ones that you actually like) and ones you haven't seen in a long time.

Hey, I have a somewhat unrelated question... is it easy enough to drive around Monaco and Cannes and Antibes? I'm renting a car with a friend when we leave Nice for Aix-en-Provence at the end of May and I wanted to stop in the other cities just for a few hours to look around and take pictures.
Too bad Lance broke his collarbone
Good grief!! I haven't seen Jim & Dana for YEARS. How fun to see them on your blog. Looks like a lovely lovely holiday for all. Color me jealous!
Kirsten who?? I'm thinking the connection must be Andrews...
