St Paul de Vence - 2nd March

After Cannes, we made our way to the fortified, medivel town of St Paul de Vence. It is a pretty tiny place, taking about 30mins to walk one round around its perimeter.


Being on the hill top, the view is amazing!!! People of the past do know how to enjoy life!

Then again... I guess trying to get water to the top of the hill is pretty tiring...

St Paul de Vence is a pretty nice art place. It has loads of galleries all around, in addition to pubs, restuarants, shops etc...

Interesting looking chair! Not sure whether it'll be comfortable or not though...

Cannes - 2nd March

Failing to find a Super Rich, Super Hunky guy (SRSH) in Nice, we set off to Cannes the following day. Despite it not being the film festival, there may still be a chance of us meeting a super star! Many of whom also happen to be SRSH.

French retailers don't work on sundays... Lucky them! But poor us shoppers...

Our main stop in Cannes was the Palais des Festivals et des Congres - venue for the annual Cannes Film Festival.
And.... what do you know?! We met some famous people!!!

Mr Austin Powers!

Spiderman!

and The Bride from Kill Bill!

After getting some mojo, learning to spin webs at dark corners of the house, and mastering the skill of chopping people's arms off, we were ready to take on the world! Beware SRSH guys! Heh heh heh...

As we explore the unknowns of Cannes, we found...

The handprints of famous people!!!




and erm... not so famous people...


It was an adventurous morning! Unfortunately, our mission failed again. No SRSH found. The closest thing to SRSH is...

This japanese guy pretending to be a super star...

I think something's wrong with my mojo...

Nice - 1st March

After 30mins of train, 1hour of bus ride, 30mins of walking, and 2hours of flight, we finally arrived at Nice aka the rich ppl's place. Like what we've read and heard, this place is a pretty place! Perfect for a relaxing break in summer!

No, this is not a train! Although it does look like the metro/tube, it's only a tram. But... it's the sleekest tram I've ever seen!

Did I mention that rich ppl comes to Nice? I definitely won't mind owning an apartment that faces the sea. Oh! A yacht will be great as well! Hmm... although it's passed 29th Feb, I should start searching for a super rich, super hunky guy to propose to 4 years later! Nice seems like a good place to start!

Even the buskers here are rich enough to own a piano instead of the usual guitar/saxaphone/violin etc...

Guess I will buy some flowers from the Cours Selaya flower maket

Then bring the guy for some seafood meal... (Since he's supposed to be super rich and super hunky, he'll be footing all the bills ;-D)
Starting with mussels and oysters,

Moving on to fishes...

and ending with a tart for dessert...


And... topping it up with a fireworks show at night!

Now that I've it all planned out, the only thing to do is to look for that super rich, super hunky guy! heh heh heh...

I'm going to Nice, France!

I'm going on a 3-day trip to Nice, France! The weather forecast is Sunny, sunny, and sunny!!!

But 1st, we've to brave through the cold night in London... We're setting off at 12 midnight to catch the train to London, then EasyBus to Luton Airport, sleep there for 3 hours before boarding the plane to Nice! It's hardcore travelling! Not for the faint heart!

3 days, 5 places! I can't wait!!!
