The drive from Neive to Antibes is mostly autostrada quite easy driving as long as you look ahead for slow trucks pulling out from the right and ultra fast cars zooming up on the left. First drive South on a flat, wide drive then over the pass in the Apennines’. There were inches of snow there today during our drive. At Savona you turn left and the coastal highway drive begins. The scenery is inspiring, sweeping views of the Med and inland between the crags of the Apennines’ as they dive into the sea. The road is tunnel after bridge after tunnel after bridge with no “solid” road anywhere. The temperature to has risen about 10 degrees and there are patches of sun warming instead of the clouds and fog. Then you hit the Grimaldi tunnel and suddenly all the license plates have ‘F’ instead of ‘I’ and the driving is a little less…exhilarating. You are using the “sortie” instead of the “uscita”. Then sortie 44 and in a few minutes you are in the slightly shabby 2 star you have chosen for a base to explore Biot, Grasse, Antibes and the other villages of the Cote D’Azure.
A tout A l’heure!!
