Stink good in a hilltop villiage

Wednesday 22nd October
On the bus and follow the coast west to Grasse.
Here we visit a perfume factory and the girls get an opportunity to stink good.
The odours were interesting but certainly overpowering. Some of the girls seem to apply it with a crop duster which cancels the subtilty.
From there we went to Saint-paul de Vence, a walled village on a hill top.
Because it was only 30 mins from Cannes it is well visited by film stars. Lots of stories about Piccaso spending much time there a paying for meals with paintings.
Finally the gardens  of Villa Ephrussi Rothchild. And no I had never heard of her either, but she obviously was loaded and both the villa and gardens were magic. Back to Monte along the coast road, boy there is some money here.
