Last day in Nice, left hotel after breakfast at around 9am+ and went to explore around.. I would say the weather is wonderful that day- sun is shining on you and cool breeze blowing. *thinking this is LIFE!*

photos taken at beach, windy and sunny.. saw old and young people tanning in bikini. 1 lady remove top of bikini to tan naked.

Finally get to see the famous picturesome marketplace.

Flowers at Euro 15 onwards (most expensive bouquet only around Euro 30), flowers, preserved Sweet fruits & candies, strawberries at Euro 5.

paintings selling at Euro 2-10 ( I regretted not buying 1-2 back)

pickles

fishmonger selling fish~

the whole stretch of the market

another pic of the whole stretch of the market

store selling cheese and meat i think

I dont mind living in the apartment with bright flowers at the balcony. Reminds me of Romeo & Juliet~

people lying down on the pebbles for a tan. Of cos they place a towel over the pebbles.

we climbed up - 90m high

the view above~

there is a man playing musical instrument & singing, sounds like some romantic & soothing French song to me =)

took this pic while boss wants to sit down and rest before proceeding up. Like a scene from Twilight..
