Veinticinco anos despues!



...so, the plane took us to Zurich...


...where the expensive watches and the delicious chocolates are...


...after a pedicure and four long hours of waiting...
....it was Nice...cha cha cha!




...twenty five years ago, we came here on our honeymoon...
 ...we met a couple from Canada that were also staying in the same hotel as us,  being on their honeymoon, too!

...it was love at first site!

...after twenty five years, we're back, but this time with our children, back to the "scene of the crime"...re-united and having a wonderful time...
...and this is where it all began...


...Nice has changed...we have gotten a little older (not a lot!)...the places where we used to go, back then, are still here, bringing back good memories...


...we always go for quaint and not for luxury, so the hotel that we're staying at now, is a typical French hotel...


...all French...


...this is Nice...


...sweet little restaurants...


...the buildings...


...the main square...


*****


...the French Riviera...

..."To catch a thief"...looking for Grace Kelly and Cary Grant...



..reaching Monaco...


...the Casino, where so many movies have been filmed at...


...the famous Hotel de Paris...


...and Princess Grace's shadow behind every corner...


...the port of Monte Carlo...


...the Palace...


...the streets around the Palace..


...the "little" marina...


...and some of the "poor" people's apartments...


...let's not forget the ugly cars either..



...so, in case you're wondering whether you should visit this place, I advise you not to...
...depression is guarranteed!


...a tout a l' heure!
