Cannes



The weekend prior to Kerry and Kevin's visit - we were in Cannes. I had a trip for work, (my next event is in Cannes in November so we were on a site visit) and TJ came for the weekend.

We stayed at the Majestic- one of the main hotels that is used during the film festival. Our room had a patio that opened up to the main strip and the water. It was hot and sunny and a fantastic break from the rains we've had.


One of the best moments we had was a post-run jump into the ocean - fun way to cool down. We tried to recreate an oyster experience we had there with Craig and Rebekah a few years back, (where our host took a platter down to the port, by bus, got fresh oysters from the fishermen, and took the bus back to the house where we devoured them with some rose') and walked through the old town.


It's such a funky town- with the combination of outdated glitz and glamour - lots of older people there on retirement - and the whole Cote D'Azure vibe.
