This is a photo from the beach in Nice. Even though it's almost October, there were tons of planes arriving, bringing more tourists. The beach itself was mostly small pebbles but there were two man-made sandy spots. The only problem with the sand is that it was extremely windy, so all my stuff was filled with sand by the end of the day. The waves were high and it was a bit cold, not really swimming weather. The other problem with Nice is the construction. They are ripping up all the roads in the downtown so it takes forever to get anywhere. We were suprised to find they were laying down new tracks for...you guessed it...a streetcar line. Just like Toronto. Le plus ca change, le plus c'est la meme chose.

So the highlight of the trip so far was the lamp store? ;-)

The thing that strikes me about your blog today is how Les-appropriate your entries have been of late. Les like Nice. Les has worked in the streetcar biz. Les loves Spidey...

Yes, I love lamp(s).

You know what they say, great minds think alike.
