We spent the morning watching glass blowing at La Verrerie De Biot in Biot, France. http://www.verreriebiot.com/fr The kids really enjoyed watching the glass blowers make all kinds of different glasses, vases, bowls, etc. It was neat to watch them mold the glass. We bought some glasses from La Verrerie De Biot, but we also bought the wine glasses, red glasses and orange glasses at a local family run glass blowing store called Verrerie Raphael Farinelli. http://www.farinelli.fr/ Verrerie Raphael Farinelli gives 10 percent discounts to Biot residence, so that was a bonus. What a great way to spend the morning. (Of course we forgot the camera, so next time we go we will post pictures of the glass blowers blowing the glass.)
