Nice Port Lympia

 This afternoon it is supposed to be raining again and through the night so off we go early this morning to get a walk in. We took the tram to Port Lympia, then walked to the Tintin exhibit that was Andres list of things to do. Arrived to find out it is closed on Tuesday, of course it is Tuesday, not sure any of our days have gone exactly as planned so far.

Walked back home through old town stopping for croissants, yes another new place sampled.

This afternoon we have reservations at a nice restaurant around the corner from us at 2:15PM. It is a 3 course meal with three different options to choose from on each course. All were delicious, though dessert was a little disappointing as they were out of the pecan tart that for sure Joey and I were going to order.  Andre was happy as he got creme brulee.  When the bill, Andre said it was cheaper than a taxi ride (Monaco to Nice the other day). The waiter laugh about it.

After lunch the rain had started, quick stop at the grocery store for a few supplies, then an evening of cards and not doing much else. Finally a nice day forecast again for tomorrow.

Still managed an OK step count 12,660 or 8 KM walked
