Morning my darling good morning how’s the view oh I don’t know it’s just a you know sailboats and mountains and seagulls and you know look at that now you have the the mountain with the snow caps over there that’s the alss by the way this is

Beautiful let’s go see anti and so the tour of antibes begins and we knew that anti had a great reputation as being a phenomenal City but we had no idea it would be this breathtaking you know what’s really cool here what is the combination of like like the boats the

Yachts are you know big and bright and new and shiny and then we have Old Stone and we have newer construction and it’s like a really good blend of many centuries right here so it was a settlement for of the Greece back in days yeah and uh after that that because

There was already people living there they were always at war with the Greeks yes and the city asked uh Romans for help because the Romans help help them so much uh fighting with those tribes the city become Roman after that of course yeah because like a lot of

Friends if you want to look through here cool this is the beach the Sandy Beach this place is so Cool look look look look look look it’s called The Nomad look at that I’ve been wanting to see this for a while and the view oh I love this this is one of the older cover Market yeah yeah locals still come here to go shopping so this is definitely a

Mediterranean spot like I know we’re in France but this is very Mediterranean Italian Greek everything they have all the dried flowers and fruits and spices ooh the fresh octopus and like a little is that a ray look at his face look at his little face yeah he looks sad so the

Whole oh yeah that is a breathtaking view like the sailboat the blue uh sea the cliff the sun in your face we could spend time here you I could you know forget to go home not you know no stay forever just forget to go home oh man and like I feel like how

Much cooler is immediately it just like we uh the temperature dropped and it’s nice and comfortable right here I would never have known this without clo this is just a little residential street people don’t know about yeah and I’m smelling people cooking lunch and we should knock on

Their door and say it’s like frenes table for two thank you for bringing us Here we didn’t realize we were coming in time of Carnival because Easter is early this year so the whole season has already begun with Marty gr and in nce it’s all Carnival time so we just had a special treat of these people coming through celebrating the carne B now it’s time to

Go have a little absent pasting you mean Aero yeah we’re having Aeros it’s a little before lunch but we’re going to go drink something amazing in a cave we’re here in the cave but back in the Roman days this was street level and that was The Well of the Romans right

Over here and this is where we’re going to try the absin and see if I can make it back up the stairs absent is always a nan drink typic from France at the beginning of the last century yeah and a lot of artists like V drink but they drink huge quantity of

Absent because there is no taxin on the alcohol so a glass of absent was five times less expensive than a glass of wine and that’s why they drink a lot a lot of absent so there is a special way to drink the absent we always have Fontaine Fontaine that we got on the

Table we put some ice inside we always put 2 C of absent in a measure glass like this one see you’ve got a measure glass on the bottom a little spoon one pieces of sugar and we take the time to Ser slowly water through the sugar in

The absent to have the ritual of the absent and after you sep it you take the time to drink it so after the first glass of absent we end up wearing hats that’s just how it Works it’s delightful it’s actually very light when you say it’s very light I love it here you got the same straight oh okay it’s going to be a long after just sip it a little just take it your time to see what 76% of alcohol can Be so this is this is why they put sugar look look Madame look look at the ey of M remember the first time that he saw you you got the same eyes I love you slowly yeah because it’s very strong at the beginning but the after test is absolutely amazing

Yeah I like it no it’s that’s a problem though I know it could definitely be no because I don’t uh I don’t do a lot of strong alcohol because it burns yeah this doesn’t burn taste the light one oh it’s a different one all different ones huh

On the table you’ve got four different ones the light one is more sweet oh man I mean if you don’t tell someone there’s alcohol in there you just drink that that’s that’s a refreshing drink it’s very Refreshing to being pompet before lunch I should put my like this this is the one open that’s more like it where are we going we’re going to go wander through some of the streets in the old town yeah and we should probably find food after drinking this

Morning oh I know where we’re going now we’re going to that Restaurant so it’s a restaurant n which means nny n boo boo in French that’s what it is he serious I dead serious that’s what a kid says and looks like they have nice sandwiches and pasta and main courses okay it’s delightful that’s of mayonnaise which is

Kind of like just you could say a deviled egg and we’ve seen those in previous videos but this one has Herring caviar on it you can see like how yummy that’s going to be Thought she was going to feed me the texture of the white and the texture of the yellow the the the yolk is just a little bit gooey that’s a good egg mayonnaise oh yeah oh and the mayonnaise and Fran’s fresh homemade mayonnaise yeah that’s very good this is like a pork

Belly pork uh rib belly mhm and I’m going to put just a little bit of the sauce here that is is the funniest thing with the popcorn it has corn it has chopped veggies and I think I just need to put a little piece of popcorn on top

Let me get that just cuz clearly the popcorn is supposed to be there every piece of flavor in here it’s like a symphony like it would definitely not be the same if something was missing I got the duck feet so it’s got a little

Bit of herbs there and let me take a uh oh man look at this Charlie look at this look at this meat falling apart here a little oh man this looks fabulous a little baked potato there no potato for you no okay wait a minute
