Two full days in Nice
Welcome to a big city.
We enjoyed our stay in Nice. It is an exciting place to be a tourist. Lots of neat things to do and see. Weather was great. The one disappointment was the lack of cycling infrastructure. There is a fabulous track along the ocean and you can ride up and down the tramline - careful not to put a wheel in the track! Very little in the way of a designed network but there are numerous bike rental stations.
We stayed in a an apartment in the Cimiez neighbourhood in Nice. It was right across from a school and had a balcony overlooking the school yard. Pat enjoyed the background hum of the children playing. It was also very interesting to watch the parents' backpacks and purses being checked before they could enter the school grounds to pick up their children. We found the location perfect. Just outside the major tourist zone but close enough to walk to the beach and great transit a block away.
Lots of information about Nice and as I have nothing more valuable to add, I will just include some of the pictures.
