Winter on the Cote d'Azur

I know some of my readers don't live in places quite as blessed by good weather as down here, so as I was walking round Nice today, I thought I might take some photos for you.

These photos start in Nice Port, then we go to Place Garibaldi, then along the new park that's been created to replace the hideous monstrosity that was the old bus station, along the beach and back to the port. The last couple are of Villefranche, where we stopped for a drink by the beach on the way home. Enjoy!

Note: If any of you are reading this on a mobile device, this is a very image heavy post - it might be better to wait until you get home!

Tram line:

Promenade du Paillon (a huge improvement on the old bus station!)

Promenade des Anglais and the beach in Nice:

Every time I see this little building, I think it should be refurbed and turned into a seafood restaurant:

On the way round the point towards the port:

War memorials:

Dog drinking from a water fountain. Took him a while to get the hang of it, but then he was set!

Nice Port:

This is the boat I want to try and buy when I win the lottery. I adore it!
