A wonderful, small mountain village. It's about 3 km from the site. Mostly up a very steep hill. Easy walking distance for some. Others take the number 10 bus from outside the camp on the main road. Look on the bright side - coming back is easy! Roller skates? Super restaurants.   This is Le Piccolo, a cafe in the center of Biot owned by the Camping du Pylone. My mate Ron says that they serve the best moule et frites here! Biot is a village perché (french for a perched village. Bet you'd worked that out for yourself!) and you can see why from this photo. They were built on hill tops to be defensible when pirates roamed the mediterranean. An early form of ROTT! Like all Roman Catholic towns the cemetry is Amazing with a capital Amaze! Sorry about the bloke on the right - 'tis me!
