A nice picture of the beach at Nice France.  The next day Lynne and I flew with our friends Emmanuelle and Jean Michael to Sardinia where we joined Doron and Sandra and their friends Issable and Mark for a 7 day sail in the North of Sardinia and southern Corsica on a 41 ft Lagoon catamaran. We had great weather, sun the entire time, great food and even better company.
