Today was our last real day in Nice to sit back and enjoy the Mediterranean. In addition to the customary swim in the ocean, most of the day was spent looking for gifts for loved ones and taking one last chance to explore the city. B found the old city's cemetery, and I climbed to the old castle, church, and fortress on the massive rock outcropping behind our hotel. At the top was a great sign, essentially saying the State doesn't use pesticides or chemicals in the Parks, so you shouldn't either in your home garden.
We all found the flower market in the afternoon, and some cute dogs that seem to own certain streets and tables in the old town. B got some great shots of all the yummy treats in the shops.
At the end of the day, we met up with our old friends and cycling partners for the week to have a great dinner together. Not much of narrative today, just photos of a beautiful city.
Love to all at home.
It looks like Paradise! Another gorgeous group of pictures....Sydney liked looking at the one of the presents...she picked out what she thought might be for her! Good luck tomorrow...ride safely!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photos! Syd enjoyed looking at the photos of the flowers, cookies, and doggie. And I am intrigued by the photo of the presents...hmmmm what is the item at the bottom?!
ReplyDeleteLove you guys, looking forward to seeing you guys on the bikes! Ride safe!
More great pictures and narrative! The fish-like ceramic (?) sculpture is different. The dog-like rolls or pastries are odd. Love the doggie laying in the middle of the street. Also love that the candies and other sweets (?) are all lined up so perfectly. The waterfall and the flower market so beautiful. And of course the presents - MIss Syd and her momma are drooling just waiting to see what lies within! Love it. Thanks again for sharing another day with us. I know the biking begins and can't wait to see all the posts from that journey. So glad you are enjoying your trip thus far!
