Day 10 (Continued)
After lunch, Frederick wanted to take us to a true medieval village up in the hills. Saint-Paul de Vence.
He dropped us off at a charming square before entering the walled area.
An interesting thumb sculpture inside the courtyard of the hotel.
The first order of the day was Gelato!
We climbed up to the top of the hill and working our way down.
What a fun little place. It was so charming and quaint. It was the quintessential provincial French village and I loved walking through it.
Afterwards we drove back through Nice. An amusing statute by the waterfront. It’s actually flat, but gives the illusion of being 3D.

Beware the self cleaning toilets: A funny side story, but unfortunately no pictures. We used the toilets at Saint-Paul. But, these were not our usual pay toilets. For 50 cents euro, you entered, basically a steel box. We noticed that the bathroom floor was really wet. There were 3 lights beside the door: green was good to go, yellow was cannot use and red was do not enter. Anyway, after using the toilet, you unlocked the door and exited. However, you couldn’t let anybody come in after you because once the door shut, it self-cleaned and sanitized itself. DD almost got a shower if it hadn’t been for our quick thinking on figuring this out.
