France (2) Day 3

Today the move to Nice. We hit several beaches on our way east 'long the French Rivera, or as the French call it, the Côte d'Azure.

Shops where eminently cute - think I have a new thing for small bush like plants in miniature terra cotta pots. Aren't these little olive tree plans surprisingly adorable?


We weren't too busy shopping to stop for a lunch of Crêpes :) The artist capturing the scene outside the Crêperie lent a bit of ambiance. 


Pete found our "retirement home" on the last stretch of costal road before Nice. We went out for dinner at a little restaurant around the corner from our hotel/hostel (Hotel Meyerbeer). I got the curry lamb, Pete had the shrimp flambée- we forgot that shrimp here come more fully endowed with legs, eyeballs, etc. in regions other than the sterile US. After a lovely diner, we were off to bed - we must rest up for a long day at the beach tomorrow :)
