Nice is nice

Just arrived in Nice, France after 2 great days in Provence. Arles is a great city with museums and roman historic sites to see. Avignon was great although I only spent 1/2 a day there. Saw the Popes palace and Avignon bridge. My hotel was on the river rhone right where Van Gogh painted 150 years earlier.

The train ride to Nice was on time and not too bad. Got asked for my ticket twice. I guess I don't look like I belong in first class. Now I am going to check out Nice and relax. Headed to Cinque Terra tomorrow.
