Is It Ok To Get Fingered?

A short holiday on the Cote d'Azur

I had to take last weekend fortunate to have a little break from hamburgers everyday and spend a few days on the Cote d'Azur. A friend of mine who currently lives and works there, had me to Antibes invited. Such an opportunity I will not miss me of course!

However, it was once questionable, would come to the long weekend in Antibes the first place. The reason: a certain volcanic eruption in Iceland, which paralyzed the European air traffic. Fortunately, the ash cloud, but withdrew just in time for last Thursday of the Lufthansa flight from Hamburg to Nice for the first time was able to fly again. When I arrived in Nice, it felt, despite the gray sky due to the mild temperatures and the sea air already like summer vacation. So it should have the following four days stay.

also a good friend from Munich was there, so we spent a wonderful time on the Cote d'Azur, with all that goes with it: delicious feast, long, boozy evening with great conversation, the beach and sun, swimming in the sea and of course tourist exploration. So we drove on the only day with more bad weather in the hinterland (Vence, Tourette sur Loup, Grasse) and visited Nice and Antibes. I could turn off all the time really well and I found it extremely difficult to return on Monday evening to Hamburg and then to get through the work week. Good thing there are photos to keep the good memories.
