Côte d’Azur
IL’Heure
Every summer afternoon on the Côte d’Azur has its hour.
The sun slips behind the pines, the clay courts fall into shade and the sea below changes colour.
The last set ends unhurried. Tea is poured on the terrace.
Cap Soleil is that hour, made into a club.
IILes Règles
Five rules, kept by the members.
