HAPPY belated BIRTHDAY Kevin! Looks like you had a great birthday month!

@Jmcivor777

Happy Birthday Kevin! Hopefully you can exhale psychologically in the post 61 years. What a lovely town and those southern France light and colours-divine. The restaurant times are indeed so very French- smaller towns even moreso. (Screens and AC are so very American ;)). Thanks for the cost breakdown. Great discoveries.

Very nice photography, video was so good the chemistry between you two is amazing. Kevin happy belated birthday and welcome to Club 61..Wow Wow we were in Cannes  May31st to June 6th. Flew into Nice, enjoyed the week driving all along the French Rivera. Yes the Mosquitos well get you  the wife left the bedroom window open got bite badly had to get some stuff from the Pharmacy. If I had known would have asked, no begged you two to meet us for Lunch. Antibes blew us away.. U mentioned in the comments that Torino is now your local, after leaving France that's where we stayed for a few days. If yall get tired of Italian food(doubtful) there is an amazing Greek restaurant near Porto Nuova station we discovered called Greek Food Lab, prices were pretty inexpensive.  .

My husband and I will be in Colmar, France for a couple of days in mid August 2024 (and then doing a Rick Steves tour of Switzerland for the last 2 weeks of August). If you’re in that area at that time, would LOVE to do a meet up!

Happy Birthday,Kevin! You picked a lovely town! I’m enjoying keeping up with your travels.

@dansouth2088

Love this!  Looks like a great place to stay and from what you posted very affordable.  Was along the coast there many years ago, I think based in Nimes for a couple nights.  So beautiful and glad that you had the time to stay for a full month.  That's the way to do it , for sure!  Thanks for sharing and am looking forward to your next adventure!

@Stpetecondo_Life

Enjoying living vicariously through your travels. Keep the videos coming.  Happy birthday!

@meenakshigoel8872

I love your videos and have been watching them since your time in Egypt 🇪🇬.   And Happy Birthday 🎁🎂!

@AndrewJEagle

Enjoying following you around the world, and the challenges you face! I like everywhere that I travel... currently in the Mascarene Islands... Mauritius, Reunion and Rodrigues. All three islands are places where you could hang out for a while. Reunion is French prices but dramatic scenery, Mauritius and Rodrigues are reasonable (if you don't stay five star). Rodrigues is really quiet and non-touristy. Interestingly, restaurant hours in this part of the world are similar to what you describe in the video - a couple of hours for lunch, then open again at 6 pm for dinner (the same restaurants here). And just randomly, Armenia is also really great. Happy travels! Happy birthday!

I stumbled upon Finding Gina Marie while planning a family trip to Egypt.  Thank you for introducing off-the-beaten-path places.  I also appreciate your honest feedback on restaurants.

@christinabayma119

Great practical information. I hate mosquitoes and flies so knowing they were an issue certainly gives me pause. Thank you for sharing. Happy Belated Birthday to Kevin.

@JMJMJ1

Happy Birthday ❤❤❤ hope you had a wonderful Birthday month ❤❤❤

@MsMariaSierra

What a great video!!  I truly hope Kevin had a lovely month of celebration. I know this is late, but I’m still playing catch-up!  During our stay in Nice we encountered the same problems with the restaurants!  I know it wasn’t their problem but ours!!!  Sometimes we forget (at least we do) that we’re the visitors and their cultures is ours to adopt or go somewhere else!  Nice’s beaches were also pebbly (more like rocks!) and our granddaughter had the hardest time getting in the ocean.

@DonsBeerReviews

Looks fantastic!  I've only been to Marseilles and loved it. Cheers 👍👍😀😀

@PippaHoffman-lb9ft

Timely video. We’ve booked an Airbnb in Cagnes for Spring of ‘25. It looks lovely. Thanks for filming Could you tell us where the farmers market is, please?

@GavinVarma

Bit late to this. Great videos. Was planning visiting Antibes & Nice next year we like to eat out a lot but prices are a big put off

@Bartrum

Nice! Back in the early 90s I lived in nearby Theoule-sur-mer, check it out if you get a chance. I love the Côte d’Azur!

@Property2030sg

Very nicely done incl pros and cons, your videos are getting better and better each time !  Food prices seemed expensive - did you do much cooking at home during that one month ?  Decent supermarkets readily available?  

When you booked the AirBNB, did you read the reviews?  Did any of the reviews even mention mosquitoes and flies ?  I am just wondering whether the mosquitoes and flies will still be around during the cool of winter, which is when I may plan to travel to the French Riviera, possibly incl Cagnes Sur Mer :).    I know, I know, winter is not the best time to visit the area 😂.

Btw, happy birthday, Kevin!

@JMJMJ1

Are your kids planning on visiting you at some point?

"CAN-yuh" not "Kog-nuh"  The "g" in Cagnes is silent.  Your snack is "petit pain au chocolat" ("sha-co-lah") not "Chack a latt" The "T" in chocolat is silent.
