Bear 🐻has escaped to Cannes for 3 days for a late summer vacance!🤸🏾♀️🤸🏾♀️🤸🏾♀️The 5 hr direct TGV train was a snap. And not too full which was nice.
We wandered a bit on rue Antibes..the street for plebeian shopping…remember Repetto, the ballerina shop. Does anyone wear those anymore 👟?
Ladurée has a cute outdoor cafe in their special pale sea foam green. These chairs look tempting to paint 🎨...should I?
Shops along the Croisette are the traditional big-name deluxe for visiting celebs. We took the le P’tit train (1hour-12€) first thing to get the lay of the land.
Up to the Old Town/veille ville for a 10-minute spectacular stop.
And then around town. It’s always a good idea to do the tourist train 1st thing. The guide informed us what movie stars stayed at which luxury hotel..major important info bien sur.
*It was an extremely bumpy ride. Not recommended if you just had hip replacement - have an ambulance waiting. But fun and the accompanying Madonna music and commentary was a plus.
After we walked around a bit (I am with Carolyn from WA) looking for a divine place for tomorrow’s breakfast. Last visit I went to the Carlton but sadly they are unser renovation 😕
Then dinner at hotel-recommended Cafe Hoche on rue Hoche. Green tomatoes with buratta + pesto. Plus a ginormous plate of linguine a la vongolo that instantly ruined all the hard regime work of the past few weeks. Back to Audrey green apples 🍏 for me. Fortunately patisserie shops are few in Cannes👏🤸🏾♀️ Today we are off to Nice or Grasse or Villa Kerylos. Or…your suggestions are most welcome🙏 I got for the trip appropriate Hollywood style Holly Golightly (from Jimmy Fairly) sunglasses + my etsy ‘Audrey’ hoop earrings. Bear and I are back on Friday to realité 💋💋Bisou, bisou Darlings 🐻🥂🍾
