Links I Love Week 25

I spent the last week on the beach in Nice with my family. We had a mixture of travel days to Grasse, Monaco, and Menton and a few beach days. The weather was picture perfect and I enjoyed a nap or two under one of these umbrellas. We strolled the promenade in the evening eating gelato and watching the full moon over the water. I have a lot of images and tips to share but I will save all that for when I am home. I just arrived in Paris for the next two days and I am in heaven. I am currently writing this from my Parisian balcony overlooking the Eiffel Tower.
