Nice

Ok... so I promised I would be caught up soon. However, I came across a few shoddy internet connections in combination with a generally really busy schedule. I swear my life is so much busier now that I don't have any jobs... but way more fun! Therefore, I have fallen even further behind. SO I am going to try to whiz through the next through posts while I have a good connection so I can get caught up. And then maybe after that I will get caught up on loading my photos to Flickr too! Ok, lets not get too far ahead of ourselves... one thing at a time!

   Nice was such a beautiful city. I met some great gals and had some wonderful picnics. It was an over all wonderful time. I saw the sights, wandered the market and the park, checked out the Modern art museum. I  realized I truly have a love/hate relationship with modern art. I like to break it down into the allowing four parts: The beautiful, the technical, the mental, and the bullshit. The first three are great and provoke different emotions within one. The last is just as it seems. Bull shit. A giant statue of a horse painted a bright color is not modern art. Its over sized home decor. Picasso is modern art. Just saying.

   Anyways, enough of my rant. Here are some of my photos from Nice.
 Cote d'Azur.

 The fruit and flower market - We had a wonderful picnic with goodies from here!

 The views around Nice were absolutely inspiring.

This is good modern art. I was completely captivated trying to figure out how this whole thing worked. It was all interconnected and made out of random scraps of garbage and everyday bits and pieces. Yes, its off kilter. So much thought and manual work went into this!
