Things start hopping again in the South of France when spring begins to bloom. While Nice goes mad for carnaval at this time of year, the very quiet and stately town of Menton celebrates all things citrus with La Fete du Citron.
A few weeks ago, I strolled through the dazzlingly festooned Casino Gardens. This year's theme was "Grand Civilizations," providing visitors with an unusual trip through various epochs around the globe. All rendered in citrus fruits and flowers. And campy mannequins. It was wacky, whimsical, fun -- and unabashedly cheesy.
Enjoy the short video below. You can also view a larger rendering of the video on YouTube.
