Cannes.Monaco

the true epitome of luxury

As our cruise brings us back to French territory, we make our way to much more relaxed, easy-going area which is the South of France. That is of course your definition of relaxed means sunbathing in designer swimsuit, men strolling in chino shorts by the pier but still wearing leather shoes, and shopping by the beach stores means shopping for Armani souvenirs.
