Welcome back to another action-packed edition of the FR2DAY Weekly Slice, bringing you all the latest happenings from the beautiful Cote d'Azur.
Thankfully the rains have passed, the sun has
rediscovered the Riviera, and we can look forward to getting back out into the great outdoors. And what better way to do that than
running around the Port in Monaco - all for a
good cause though! And you can use this as your
final preparation for the
big race next week!
Today is
11.11.11, so why not make it all that
more memorable by taking part in a global initiative called
One Day on Earth. All you need is your
video camera and a
cast of thousands!
For all the
budding chefs out there, we have a
great recommendation for you to hone those
culinary skills. And if it's
breakfast you're thinking about...
A date (or two) for the diary: If you think
November is too early for turkey, think again! Get yourself along to
Fusion in Monaco on the
Thursday the 24th and
celebrate Thankgiving, Riviera style! And for the
dance lovers amongst you, time to start thinking about getting those tickets for the
ballet in Nice at
Christmas.
Well, that's it for this week - it just remains for us to wish you a great weekend and week ahead...FR2DAY style!
