Castle in the Air

Just north of Menton, we visited a castle which had not been restored.  All of these castles are on the highest ground in the area which means that there is usually quite a climb from the parking lot up.  This one was no exception.  When we got to the top, we were in the clouds, for which we were grateful because of the height.  (Also being unrestored there were no safety precautions and signs warning one to explore at their own risk.)
