The Virtual Paintout is on the spectacular French Riviera this month, and locations all the way from St. Tropez east to the Italian border may be painted. On Google Streetview, I headed immediately for Eze, as I remembered lunch in a spectacularly located restaurant on a cliff near there about 12 years ago. Of course, I encountered the usual Google Streetview problem – they were unable to get their camera car into that particular restaurant… but what I also noticed was that you get a much better view of everything visible from the road than you do if you’re actually there! I mean, think about how much gawking around you’d do if you were really driving on this or any of the winding routes along the Côte d'Azur… Here’s a link to location I selected (You'll need to pan the camera a little to the right to take in all of the view I’ve included here.)
