The Idiot, who was back on the French Riviera to “guest guide” The Blue Walk (www.thebluewalk.com) mini-MedTrek hikes from Menton to Theoule-sur-Mer from June 5-12, has posted 115 “French Riviera par iPhone” photos @ http://on.fb.me/kajCeg. And you can catch a video produced by The Blue Walk @ http://bit.ly/qZ0fIJ.
With that arduous task under his belt, he is returning to California until mid-August to train for a swim across the Bosporus followed by a MedTrek to Troy. These Turkish tasks will enable him to complete the MedTrekking aspect of his next book — “The Idiot and the Odyssey II: Myth, Magic and Madness on the Mediterranean” — and you can read all about them on FollowTheIdiot.com beginning August 25.
Meanwhile, here are a few samples of what The Idiot saw on the first and last day on the Riviera.

A florist in the Cours Saleya.

A seagull at a fish shop.

A pebbly beach.

A woozy Van Gogh.

The Promenade des Anglais closed to traffic for a film shoot.
