On the third day, it rained again

Rained every day so far. OK, it was hot and sunny the first day but it still rained for five mins in the afternoon. Today, it was torrential. No matter, we met friends in the Old Town and had a 5 hour lunch at the Caffé dell'Arté on the Cours Saleya.

'Bistro' Menu for 10 euros has 2 choices:

plat du jour (Rissotto today) plus glass of wine and coffee

or fish and plain rice plus mineral water and green tea 'bien d'etre' option

The children's menu was the best value 8 euros for 3 courses (up to age of 10)

The view :-(

The morning wasn't too rainy, just thunder and lighting,

went for brief run around the Cap de Nice on the coastal path, over 200 steps up, slowed to a walk, going to try and run the whole thing by the end of the holiday, maybe even try the second half of the path to Villfranche.

the trail around the coast:

Been a long time away from Nice this year, this pic is from last trip - we skied in Isola 2000
