Follow along with our current trip or explore past adventures. Our blog title is a bastardized portmanteau of our family name, Farnsworth, and Dolce Far Niente, “the fine art of doing nothing” in Italian. So this is us getting very accomplished at wasting our time having fun.

- Hanging in the French Riviera
Up, pack, have breakfast and head to our bus to Nice. The drive is beautiful, most of it on roads perched way up the hill from the Mediterranean. We get our rental car which is big by European standards but not big in terms of all the stuff we have to load in it. We’ve missed lunch so buy sandwiches along with our grocery shopping and enjoy a car picnic. We find our lovely villa outside of Saint-Paul-de-Vence and unload. After settling in we head out to explore the beautiful hill town of Saint-Paul. Drinks overlooking the valley on one side then a great dinner under the linden tree on the other side (Le Tilleul).
