Kisses à Cassis

Johnny Depp + his Jewish mother.

Making sangria!
Classying up Korean food.
In France, we drink tea out of bowls.
The girlies.
I love you, Cassis.
Harbor chillin' with my girls.
Mama Mia, the birthday girl.
I fell in love with this city. (How can you NOT?)
Deep blue.
Excited to be at the beach again! (Kaixi... c'mon girl...)
What's wrong, Mia?
This beach day was a much needed day for us Cali girls.
Karate kicks on weird platforms, because Miranda.
Serene.

Hi!
I love my girls.
Can't you just hear the waves now?
"White wine of Cassis."
Ran into the cutest dog inside the vineyard.
This vineyard had exclusive access to a secret beach.
Free wine tasting!
We actually ended up not going out, because wine.
Gâteau à la Mira.
Birthday lunch by the harbor.
Oh, hey guys, I'm on a boat!
Boat ride to the calanques.
God?
Poor Mia got seasick, LOL!
Oh, Kaixi, I can just hear the laughter now.

There was a lot of talk about where we should go for Mia's 22nd birthday, and in the end, we decided to do a weekend getaway to this beach city called Cassis! And oh boy, was this a great choice. We got to spend quality girl time with each other and if that wasn't enough the weather gods blessed us with beautiful rays of vitamin D all weekend, making it a hundred times better. Also, we got to go on a boat ride to see the calanques (cliffs) and got a free vineyard tour/wine tasting at this random vineyard we came across. Turns out, it's actually a pretty well-known white wine manufacturer! (Lucky us, right?) We spent most of our time wandering around the city, drinking wine, cooking, just chatting away our lives. It couldn't have been a more girly weekend. It was also so relaxing and nice to be back at the beach again. I guess I truly am a Cali girl at heart.
