The Last Post & Villa Rothschild...... Cap Ferrat

View from Cap Ferrat. Just outside the entrance to Villa Rothschild.
 It's been a great holiday but it's time to come home and definitely time for home cooked food!!!!
What a feel good pic to finish with for all my dog lover followers! I just love this pic. We were waiting for the bus to Cap Ferrat and looked up to see this little guy one floor up looking down on the passing crowd!!!
Some of Beatrices china collection (..had to put this pic up, it's pink!)
The front reception area
Beatrices breakfast tray, dress and shoes, double click for close up! (Pic of young Beatrice in the frame)
Lovely tapestry chair
More of the garden
Villa Rothschild.......Cap Ferrat
The fountains come on every 20mins and classical music is played........fantastic to see and hear!        Note the turtle on the 3rd rock!
Can you believe these flowers!!!! I just love them they are so vibrant in colour...just beautiful!
Beatrices lovely bedroom

Beatrice had these little chairs made especially for her animals. She had dogs but also monkeys and other types! She even had a big wedding for 2 of her dogs and asked loads of people and their dogs to attend!!!!
THE LAST POST
Well this is it....the very last post!!!! Thanks so much to all of you who have followed our trip either commenting or silently following. I hope I haven't ended up boring you and that you've enjoyed seeing all the different places. It's sometimes hard to know which pics to put up when you take 70 or more in a day, I have tried to vary it a bit for you!
Today for our last day we went to Cap Ferrat to Villa Rothschild. It is a  beautiful old building, we enjoyed going through it and then seeing the gardens after it very much.Beatrice who owned it was an eccentric lady but she had good taste in building this mansion.  Enjoy the view inside and out!
Thanks again to all of you and may you have many happy holidays yourselves! 
"That's all folks!"
