You may remember that we had a big plan to take the train in to Nice from the port of Villefranche and wander on our own. The market place on Cours Saleya is an antique mart and I wanted to walk down the Promenade de Anglais. I did not think we wanted to go further afield as described in this post.
Here is a map of our first port of call, and a link to the port review for Villefranche.

We arrive at the yellow arrow. Monaco/Monte Carlo is east (right) at the aqua arrow. Nice is west (left) at the blue arrow. Nice is a couple of miles away. The train from Villefranche actually cuts through the mountain to reach Nice.
Eze (green) and St. Paul d'Vence (fuschia) are two popular destinations for tours in the area. Cannes is a green arrow off to the left (west) past Antibes.
These maps are great if you zoom out to see the overview of the area or zoom in for the details. Also, here is a web site, Real Travel, with lots of maps. The link will take you to a map similar to this one of the area, but it also links to maps of the specific destinations, like Nice.
P.S. Here is a link to another Villefranche map that is even better since it appears to be the official city map.

So, is that what we did?

Hi....
I'm from Bloggers Over 50 and finally Blogrolling has been fixed where I can once again add bloggers who want to be part of the member list.
If you'd like to be added, when you have time, your sidebar needs an active link ---and or graphic with the blogroll list--- to the home page.
When you have that done, let me know and I will add your blog link to the blogroll.
