Bethany In The Big City : It's nice to be in Nice!

I love that our girls trips have become a frequent event, and even more wonderful is that our trip to the South of France has become an annual trip!

There is no-where more beautiful, where the sun shines every day and where so much fun is had.

This trip was extra special as we were celebrating this little one getting engaged!

And, of course, the rest of the Chicas became bridesmaids. So much to celebrate. The champagne was flowing and was never ending.

The first day we woke up and sat outside in the early morning heat of the day, digging into a wonderful brunch of orzo, avo, quails eggs and so many other goodies.

Fuelled and ready to go we headed down to Nice sea-front and picked up some bikes. We had a wonderful day whizzing down the promenade, feeling the sea-breeze knotting our hair.

Of course we cycled to the old port and to a mojito bar that over looks the harbour. Again, one we had worked out the practicalities of drinking we dived right in and gorged ourselves on some wonderful mezze boards.

A rather more wobbly cycle back was the result! However, we were treated to a gorgeous pink sunset across the bay.

The next day we headed to the beach and to our favourite beach club; Helios! The team are all so friendly and attentive, making sure every day is special and enjoyable.

We swam, gossiped and planned wedding details. We ate prawns bigger than our heads and sipped ice cold rose to keep ourselves cool. Obviously a day at the beach would not be complete without one of the Chica Mamas.
