a snack and siesta before the afternoon activities

Oskar and I quickly popped into Monoprix (leaving her and herself outside, as otherwise we would have been there for hours!!!!) for some mid-day snacks.  We also thought it would be a good opportunity to blog the mornings events before strolling out again for the evening.

a bit of jazz at the Hotel Negresco

Olaf and I decided to take a walk down the Promenade de Anglais for a bit of culture.  We happened across this cheerful fellow, who attempted to serenade us with some jazz.

window shopping....

....but not for blinds!!  Her and herself seemed to have taken a fancy to this shop.  Luckily we persuaded them goodies would not do well in the heat and hurried them on their way.

some time hanging around

Once again we seemed to be spending unnecessary time hanging around whilst her and herself were window-shopping....

a silent sigh of thanks that we were left behind

Herself took this photo and told us how beautiful the port was with the lighting.  It just looks scary to us.  We are now thinking that perhaps Her and Herself were lying to us when they said the hotel was once a convent - we are now thinking they may have meant COVEN!

a chance for a sneaky snooze

Whilst Her and Herself were dining out, Oskar and I decided we should have a couple of hours shut-eye if possible.  You can see from this photo just how wide the room isn't!!!  Foolishly Her and Herself left the key with us..... if only we were tall enough to reach the lock!!!

a few days on the Cote d'Azur

Bonsoir mon amies.  Aujourd-hui, nous voyager a Nice.  We're going to have to stop talking French now as Herself has nicked the phrase book!!

Her and herself have found a very 'traditional' bijou hotel in the old town of Nice.  So bijou it is no more that 8ft by 10ft!  There is no room for us in the bed, so it looks like we have been allocated the table to sleep on - and there's not enough room on that either!

In order that we do end up gaining any additional weight, her and herself left us on our own and went out to dinner.  We believe they may have taken the scenic route as they were gone for some time.  They did not even bring us back the usual staples of coke, pringles and M&Ms - claiming that the supermarche's were already closed!
