Dear Friends,
I am afraid that I am giving the impression that all is always perfect here in paradise. Unfortunately, there are some troubles.
We encountered this (unlucky for him but lucky for us) dead rat in the street. You can imagine that there must be lots of rats in la vieille ville (the old town where our apartment is located) parts of which date back to 1295 when Villefranche-sur-mer became a tax free port.
There are also the normal problems of a water heater not working. Here I am late a night trying to find a switch to add water.
The good news is a real repair person will be arriving in about an hour. In any case, if the troubles are getting you down, you can always stop by a fancy butcher shop that has wine and some fresh produce in Beaulieu called Les Halles. You can just pick up a quick glass of wine in style.
Thanks for reading and please comment,
The Unabashed Liberal
