On day eight we leave Tucany and fly to Nice . Our plan is to stay in Nice three nights then travel back along the Riviera back to Florence.
     
I pack a smaller suit  case with my art supplies  for my checked bag and put the clothes in a back pack and have to carry the easel separately. Security does not like the easel and  I am forced to pay 60 euros to check the easel or ditch it altogether. I pay. 

My  sister found this beautiful home owned by Jonell and Werner on Air Bnb.com  They give us a beautiful room and are fabulous hosts. It also helps that my sister is fluent in French.

We explore Nice, the beach, flower market and take a train to Cagnes Sur Mer to find the Renior home and studio only to find that it is closed until after we leave.  So we go to the old villiage. It takes the whole day to walk and take the trains.  The next day we explore the spectacular Rothchild Villa and Monaco. No time to paint.

The beaches here are rocky with some imported sand. You can rent a space on the beach for 12 Euros. We dip our feet in the water then leave.
