Nice Out-Takes, 1

Many cute two-seater EVs here, Renaults, Fiats, etc.; note spoiler

No! Shoplifters should have to read A La Recherche du Temps Perdu!

Workers/climbers on the Bellanda Tower, on the Colline de Chateau

Obsessive/Compulsive Disorder Kitchen Store...literally...really nice
culinary store

Moral Outrage Department #1: on the border of the kiddie park,
Jardin de la Bourgada; nothing like this would ever be permitted
in an American park, much less a kiddie park

Ditto, #2

The first rule of Fight Club is...where Tyler Durden hangs out when in Nice;
Chuck P. would be so proud

Every French town has a beautiful fin de siecle merry-go-round


Moral outrage #3

City library in the artsy district; closed due to construction


World-wide sentiment

One sees "Hollister, California" wear all over Europe--anything
remotely American-sounding sells--or used to--here, in the up-scale
Nicetoile shopping center is an actual Hollister store; we've been
to Hollister, California, more than once...sort of a down-scale place
in the middle of nowhere...to put it kindly

Film-shoot outside the Negresco Hotel

The buses in Nice go everywhere, but the trams go quicker

Garibaldi statue in Garibaldi Square

Fountains not far from our apartment

Major "civility" emphasis in Nice--working, too--of course, Europeans
have no clue as to what incivility is...you have to visit the US to see
the real thing

Glasses vending machine

Porno bus stop

Nice is definitely stripey country

Palm Sunday refuse

Bus charging station

Bottle-brush plants everywhere; lots of bottles to clean
