Nice: Nov 17-20

The week before we left Bordeaux, we went to Nice for a few days. The purpose of the visit was for Sean to collaborate with Morby at the Observatoire de Nice (which is awesome and was designed in part by Eiffel). There was an Air France strike that ended Monday night but our flight was Monday afternoon, so we were quite nervous about the trip! Luckily, our flight was operated by a subsidiary so we were all set (but see all the cancelled flights on the board!). When we got to the airport, Owen did something for the first time -- he walked on his own while pushing the stroller around! He did this nonstop for about a half hour before we had to head in to the gates:



We stayed at a "nice" place in downtown Nice, near the Place Massena. Here are some photos of our trip...






Marisa's maternal grandmother was a Halevy and Sean's paternal grandmother is called Memere ("Mim"). We found them both in Nice.
