Dad and Una arrived yesterday so it's a Hobday invasion of Villefranche. Went for dinner at a little waterfront restaurant, Les Corsaires which provided an unimpeded view of the valet parking for all the restaurants along the waterfront.
It was like being an episode of Top Gear and even more fun spotting the number plates of each car and working out the nationalities. The Swiss narrowly had it over the Russians.
I also love the way that each waterfront restaurant has its own tender so when you get bored with the menu on your super yacht today, you can call up your restaurant of choice and they will collect and deliver you to and from one's floating gin palace.
Marvellous!
Another thing I love about Villefranche is the dilapidated apartment buildings on the waterfront with million dollar views, perched above all the glitterati passing by underneath, and looking for all the world like a third world suburb of Buenos Aires.
You really wouldn't think that there's a EUR45 million dollar wedding taking place next door today!
