Nice and Brighton
A Commuter's Journal


Just a couple of miles from Nice. Most tourists won't know Antibes this way - with the snow covered Alps so near, and yet so far away, as the roads and railways have been blocked because of heavy snowfall. We're here in the sun, they're there freezing their balls off, and never the twain shall meet, not this week anyway.

The old town of Antibes is really nice. Many people from the boats, crew of luxurious yachts, mostly from Australia, are roaming the narrow streets, meeting their mates.

Washing place. Witness of many secrets.

Nice little house on the sea side.

The Bay of Angels. On the other side of the bay you can see Nice.

One more look into the Old Town - we need to go back to Nice.

On our way back to the railway station we walk by the port. In the distance you can see the old fortress, and way back the Alps. There's something in the air - something that promises a nice summer.

Hi Jim,
I don't own a yacht anymore, but I would like to have a 38ft sailing yacht, just small enough to be able to sail her myself, without any crew. :-))

De
Volkskrant was founded in 1919 and is a daily morning
newspaper since 1921. Today it is the biggest newspaper of the
Netherlands, a liberal/leftish daily.

Long ago I
used to be a chef, in restaurants and in the merchant navy. I still
like to cook, for friends, at home. Since 2004 I'm writing the
International Gastronomical Must Have Reference Work.

Or which one you like to have?
Most I like the one but last picture.
The idilic alley with a lot of natural stones.
