The Blue Chairs of Nice, France

We finally got our chance to experience the blue chairs of Nice. We've had several family members visit Nice and rave about it so now we finally got our chance, too.  It was our next stop after we left Venice on the road to Nick's house in Spain. And what a lovely Mediterranean spot. This is part of the French Riviera on the Mediterranean and while we were there we also visited Monaco, the home of the Grimaldi dynasty who have run Monaco since the 1200's and most notably known for when Grace Kelly married Prince Rainier.  We got a slight taste of the French Riviera last summer when our cruise stopped at Marseille and we met up with my brother who was also there at the same time that I wrote about  here .  Of course, we always wanted to go back, just like Venice, so we decided to plan a stop here on this trip and we're so glad we did.  We loved it here.  Our favorite part was the long four mile Promenade you could walk everyday.  We loved walking it....
