Nice
While returning to Villefranche, we learned that if we stayed on the bus for just one more stop, we'd be in Nice.
It seems that Greg had a friend who once lived in Nice and constantly raved about the local delicacy - "Soup au Poissons". Greg was intent on finding a particular eatery that would serve us a bowl. So through the streets we went.
Anyway, we finally found the "Soup au Poissons" restaurant but it was almost time for the ship to leave. We raced to catch the bus at the hotel down by the beach in order to return to the boat at Villefranche.
To this day, Greg insists it was the soup and not the nude sun bathers which prompted him to drag us to Nice.
     
We had to hurry back to Villefranche. If we missed the 5 o'clock tender back to the ship, we'd have no way of getting to the next port of call. After a mad dash, we made our way back to the ship.

. . . in time to relax in the sun on our way to sunny Barcelona.
