NICE IS NICE; IT IS NICE IN NICE(FRANCE)!

Although my formal Camino has ended - and that included five days of very hard rain in Santiago, I have continued with another stage of journey.  In my quest to get away from the rain. I packed my backpack and accepted an invitation from my friend Debbie T. to join her for a short stay with her as she adventures through France. 

Debbie has creatively put together a 9 month stay in Europe.  This week I flew to Nice, followed her directions for the bus from the airport ..got off at the right stop and VOILA there were Deb and her friend Joan (also visiting this week) there to greet me.

We are staying in a sweet little apartment on the edge of the Old Port.  Wonderful balcony overlooking a busy city street with buses, cars, mopeds and trams.  The weather is perfect - mid seventies and sunny.  We have been taking in the local atmosphere non stop. Today is a three-museum-day either by tram or bus or walking. We managed to squeeze in lunch on the balcony.  But we still have one more museum to get to today.

This has been a most refreshing way to enjoy the conclusion of my first Camino.

Thanks Debbie.
