'Floral fragrances.'
In June broom is the dominant vegetation above Menton. Its flowers are four times as large as the broom I am familiar with. The smell is bigger than life too: as if a thousand honey pots have been left open. This photo is taken in the Borrigo valley north of Sainte Agnès.

'Cime de Baudon.'
From the Cime de Baudon, the highest point on our walk around Gorbio, the view is even more complete. Now the coastline is included, with Roquebrune-Cap-Martin in view, while at the other side the Alps rise high.
