A Belated Post in Honour of International Women's Day

I love these regal statues I found in a park in Ville-Franche-sur-Mer last year. I admire their poise, strength and defiant stance. The pictures were taken with the Hipstamatic app on my iphone.

I like the free, fresh wind in my hair, life without care...

I love living in London. I like the hustle and bustle; the Dickensian grime; the cacophony of noises; the barrage of smells; I love London, warts and all.

But the one thing I really miss, is the sea.

And while the sea in Dublin is alright, give me the sea in the South of France any day! When looking wistfully at the latest Stella Artois poster on a tube platform, I was reminded of these photos I had taken on my last trip. Just imagine the sound of waves lapping against the shore, the clinking of boats and tucking into some huge, fresh gambas! with a glass of pale pink Rosé ...Heaven!!
