| Back in the flea market one Monday, at the build-your- own lamp or chandelier table |
 |
| Thus |
 |
| Doing a haka at the Maori stand |
 |
By the time we owned our third house, we had a key ring that size...still have it somewhere...includes three or four campers, too |
 |
| Love these scenes, the Mediterranean color |
 |
| And the plant life |
 |
| 10€ will give you a chance at a grand cru...or, more likely, a 2€ Algerian swill |
 |
| A controversial figure in Bolshevism, sort of a minister of culture and education until Lenin's death, then falling from favor to become the USSR's ambassador to Spain...but died en route, in Menton; not a bad place to die, especially of natural causes, unlike his arch-enemy Trotsky |
 |
| At a favorite store in old town, French dish towels by the yard |
 |
| Pick your poison, upscale canister set |
 |
| At a chocolate fabricant, chocolate-filled imitations of Nice's beach pebbles; the blue chair is probably not edible |
 |
| Still processing...a bouchere? |
 |
| Nice has the usual array of churches, almost as numerous as the bars; all of them up-to-the-hilt Baroque; this is one of the more minor parish churches |
 |
| Jeff Bezos note: the lost parcel shop...similar to the wine mystery box scheme above...plop some money down for a "lost" parcel, and who knows what treasures you'll receive...see rules below |
 |
| Click to enlarge...not much information about where the parcels came from or why they're "lost" |
 |
| We are now in the luggage section of Nice's Carrefour Hypermarche...the list hanging down [click to enlarge] is of various airlines' carry-on restrictions |
 |
| Unlikely statues outside the stately Negresco |
 |
| Boy will be assholes...I mean, boys...not even American, amazingly |
 |
| The old traditions live on in rural France |
 |
| "I'm sorry, monsieur, but we are out of the lavender shorts in your size...perhaps we can obtain them tomorrow from our St. Tropez store" |
