Monday, 6 March 2023 Sussie dropped me at the top of Biot, on Chemin Neuf.  There's a lot of road & building work going on, so traffic can be slow.  The building on the left if the local Office de Tourisme. Monday, 6 March 2023 Biot is a very pretty perched, fortified village filled with gorgeous streets like this one.  It has an interesting history, including being handed over to the Templars...the annual Templars des Biot festival starts on 31 March. Monday, 6 March 2023 Delicate mosaic in Rue du Portugon Monday, 6 March 2023 I visited Paola in her shop, L' atelier du Cuir.  When she first arrived in Biot, Sussie shared a house in Rue Basse with Paola...they remain good friends.  Paola's son is currently in Australia, working in Manly.
Monday, 6 March 2023 This area is called called Place des Arcades & leads to the village church.  I had dinner with Sussie here in 2006. Monday, 6 March 2023 The village church; it's small but lovely inside. Monday, 6 March 2023 I love it when people decide to make their gardens in the street. Monday, 6 March 2023

Monday, 6 March 2023 Apparently, the oranges are more for admiring than eating; I just love the colours in this picture. Monday, 6 March 2023 Trying to minimise using steep steps, I take Rue Plus Bass down the hill to the main road. Monday, 6 March 2023 Blossoms on Route de la Mer near Sussie's place
