Adrian visiting


Adrian, who has the dubious honour of being the 1st English person I got to know during my 7-year stay in old Blighty (we started working the same day), came over for the weekend.
He used to live down in this part of the world, so we got to meet some of his local friends, which was good. Here we are sat down enjoying a nice dinner in the Safari, in Court Saleya.


Actually we really only ended up going out on Friday, because Adrian had a bit of a "rough night" on Friday, so we ended up taking it quite easy on Saturday (well, me and Mathilde did do a 4 hour walk up in Utelle) and Sunday ;-)

Although we did have time to sneak in a quick drink at a bar in the old town.


The Nice carneval also started this weekend. So after seeing off Adrian, we watched the procession around the promenade des Anglais. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't very nice (well, everything obviously being relative ;-), but it was still all good fun! See if you can recognise the French presidential election candidates in one of the photos below ;-)
