We have left wet Paris courtesy of 'easy jet'. Yes the one on television! Apparently they are biggest airline servicing central Europe and London, they are also the cheapest.
The airport was bedlam, people everywhere and no trolley for our now four bags, plus two carryon, which went over weight easy fixed with a swipe of cc.
We had plenty of time as the schedule departure was 12:45 so we got to the gate at 11:30. Suddenly people appeared from everywhere all jockeying for a position. That's right no seats best in best dressed fortunately we had our ticket stamped SB, for speedy boarding. This means you get into the first wave boarding, quite an advantage.
The flight departed an hour late so our Nice driver kindly waited in nice and missed some other appointments. He gave some good info on where to go etc and has booked us into Cannes tour tomorrow as everything will be closed for Bastille day so big celebrations tomorrow night.
We are located right on beach, similar to Hawaii or rio, but the wind is howling. Despite this plenty of bronze bodies to admire sunning on the stones?
We walked up to the old town which was great fun. Bit of a mix of Venice and Greece cobbled narrow streets. Hundreds of restaurants, bars and ice cream super shops plus Betty tourist shops and other interesting outlets. It's lovely and warm and has a good feel about it. Really wish we were staying full time in nice but Monaco is only 20km up road?
We stopped at some bars then picked our dinner choice which was great
Hopefully we can get healthy before our return as we are both still coughing.
