All of this with a single hand,
the others being busy with a cinnamon milkshake,
the mouse, a hammer, a toothbush and catstroke.
Arf !

Back to Nice for a little tour...

by night...
Starting at the Negresco, facing the sea,


on the Promenade des Anglais...


and its friendly welcome,


the Nice Opera from the north-east side, rue Saint François de Paule,
(architects François Aune and Charles Garnier),


a passage leading from the Cours Saleya to the quai des Etats-
Unis and the sea,


the Espace Massena, a point of view on the old town
and the Château - in daytime,


Place Massena, on the border of the Vieux Nice (the old town),


(Architect Joseph Vernier),


and the avenue Jean Médecin (a former city's mayor).
