On June 27th we headed back to Nice as it was the last day of our workshop.  The workshop ended at noon so a few of us were on our own for the last afternoon and evening.  I woke up on the 27th with a bad case of laryngitis which was unfortunate but did not slow me down.    It must have been  the crazy French life I was leading for the past couple of weeks!  

20140627_France_0001 It was nice to see the Mediterranean again on such a beautiful day.  Although it was warm in the south of France, I didn't find it too hot (no surprise there)  and there were  also nice breezes from the ocean.  

20140627_France_0001 I was starting to think that people cannot not sit or be by themselves without using their phones.

20140627_France_0003 We went to look for the flower market in Old Nice.  There were a lot of pretty flowers but I was told it was no where near as nice as the flower market in London.

20140627_France_0001 I didn't get a chance to photograph too much laundry in France so I was happy to come across this colourful site.

20140627_France_0005 It was shopping time.

20140627_France_0008 After lunch it was time for ice-cream.

20140627_France_0010 We headed over to the fountain area again and hung out for a little while.

20140627_France_0011 I walked back to the hotel along the water; by now the beaches were packed.

20140627_France_0013 I'm still not sure I could get used to lying on the rocks.

20140627_France_0014 This looked like a lot of fun.

  I met with Sam, Gretchen and Chris on the rooftop for our own  farewell dinner.

20140627_France_0018 Our waiter was super cute and very nice.  

20140627_France_0020 After dinner,  I took a few shots of Nice.

20140628_France_0022 The next morning (I think around 5.30 or 6) I headed to the airport to catch my flight to Toronto via Munich.   By the way the air traffic controllers were finished  their strike so fortunately we could all get home.  This shot was taken at the airport in Nice as I was waiting to board.  I love a dog with attitude.  

20140628_France_0023 This shot of the fields was taken from the plane as we were flying out of Germany.      I really will have to travel in Germany one day;  so far I have just seen German airports.   I  hope you enjoyed visiting France with me.
