Nice Out-Takes, 3

59 (count'em) different lollie flavors

Not what you think it is

Arboreal strangle-hold

"Oh shit, where's my racquet?!"

Between Toulon, where he earned his spurs, and putting down the royalist
uprising in Paris, Vendemiaire, 1795, N lived here

Brilliantly adorning the Durandy subway station, a block
from our apartment

The Mediterranean was pretty calm during most of our stay,
but for this one day; no surfers, however

If you're a wealthy wannabe painter, Charvin is definitely the place
to go, whether in Nice, Cannes, or Paris; I noticed the place when 
we visited in 2013; in 2025, we lived two blocks away; the smocks are
about 200€

Gloriously old-fashioned




Pleine aire

Shades of azure

Back in old town, the beautiful 16th century Sgraffito above the
Adam and Eve House



Patron saint of baguettes

Vetements Sexy pour Hommes...similar store in the Marais...mostly skimpy
underwear and bathing suits

Strangely, in the heart of Nice, not a block from our place, is this
beautiful equestrian store; we walked by it almost daily and never saw
a horse or rider; not even any horse manure

Sort of what Charvin is to painting...this place is to riding



I confess to being a wannabe wealthy painter, but never a wannabe equestrian;
but if I were, I'd shop here
