Mediterranean Sea!!
Surprisingly, French women actually do go topless at the beach. Not being used to naked boobs on display, it was nice to have sunglasses, as this made it easier to stare at people without them noticing. Older women were more likely to wear bikini tops. No one wore those 1-piece suits that old women wear in the US, the French women were generally skinnier and in better shape even when older.
Also, I waited for a number of ladies to raise their arms in an attempt to spot armpit hairs... other than my own, I didn't see any hairy legs or arm pits. Oh well, apparently that stereotype is only true in Berkeley.

That said, I made it to the French Riviera!! It was awesome. I basically sat on the beach for 3 days... yeah, awesome pretty much describes it. Especially after a solid week of rainy weather (note giant clouds in every previous photo)
