Long weekend at the French Riviera

Last Wednesday around noon we left for Nice, France. We'd been there before for a day's visit, in 2015, and found we could spend there a longer time.

The best part of the trip was, of course, the glorious sunshine! From the moment we arrived until we left the sun was out and the temperatures were around 22-24° Celsius. Not too warm, but just lovely.

We stayed in a nice hotel, ideally located not far from the railway station and equally not too far from the promenade. The only minor thing was the weak strenght of the internet, but that had nothing to do with the hotel. It's just like that in the south of France!

We explored more of Nice this time and we also made an excursion to Monte Carlo, Monaco. That's just 20 minutes by train (which is very cheap). I'll tell more about this in my travel blog.


It were relaxing days in the sunshine and of course we also enjoyed the French food. We dined out in bistrots which served decent meals - one of them was even outstanding.

Arrived home with a nice color on our skin (at last) and having had a great time!
