Driving on very winding roads

Leaving Cagnes-sur-mer to go to our next destination, Carcassone, for one night. Today is our big driving day with a few stops along the way. I volunteered to drive first, thinking of the easy motorways we've driven on so far. Instead, we got narrow, winding roads! The drivers here are fearless and think nothing of zooming around the bends, crossing over the centre line. Meanwhile, I pitied the drivers behind me, as they regularly overtook me when it was (apparently) safe. We stopped for photo opportunities on the way, and took plenty of photos in the car, as the countryside is so beautiful. I think this would be a great place to spend a few weeks and do day trips.
After a while, Kate mentioned that she enjoyed driving on winding roads, so a quick stop was needed to swap drivers! Something we saw while driving was a man on a motor scooter carrying and eating a baguette! Another interesting sight when we stopped at a beautiful bridge to take photos was a couple having a full on argument (in French) which resulted in screaming and crying.
Some stops we made on the way were at Vence, where there were some produce markets (bought some lovely apricots and peaches), and Grasse. Grasse is famous for perfume, so we stopped in at a perfume factory, went on a tour and sampled the products. We ended up buying some lovely smelling soaps etc and the car smells wonderful!
We arrived at Carcassone a bit later than intended (about 6.30pm) so went straight into the medieval city to have a look at the castle. It was incredible, and we decided to go to dinner then come back after sunset when the castle is lit up. What a sight! It is also very windy and a little bit nippy. Another incredible sight was watching two women in heels (one in wedges, the other stilettos) trying to walk on cobblestones! I was thinking the same thing as one of their partners, who said 'I don't understand why you would wear high heels when we're going to the castle after dinner'. One said that she thought wedges would be okay, the one with stilettos had to be piggybacked!
