One of the reasons we chose to live in Mont Boron is because it surrounds a big hilltop park. The park spreads pretty far and is composed of several different areas: olive groves, dry lawns, moored areas and rocky vegetation. There's also the distinctive Mediterranean cypress and the umbrella pines framing the sea and city views. In the spring time the park was filled with beautiful white and pale yellow wild flowers - lillies, hyecinths and many others that I've never seen before. Now that the weather turned warmer and dryer you see flowering cacti. In May and early June the olive trees blossom, and spread their little white starred flowers all over the walkways.
This land used to be the hunting forrest of the Terra Amata ancestors (400,000 years ago). I think one day I need to organize an archeleogical dig for Rio and Ila!
