Manche to Med

With the window open I hear the regular roar of jet engines as planes take off opposite the hotel.

Free wheeled from the campsite to Cagnes sur Mer where a seafront cycle path leads to Nice; pretty cyclist friendly. Persuaded a sunbathers to take my pic with the bike in the Med.

I've never had such easy access to an airport.

Dumped the bike and luggage and had a final exploration of Nice. The posh port was closed off - security raised since an incident two days ago when an English man bypassed security to take photos of posh boats.

There is a huge modern library in the centre with a large study area - virtually every seat and terminal taken.

Then I swam in the Mediterranean which was as nice, if not nicer, than it looked.

Barring a disaster this is the last posting from the holiday is I fly back to sunny Yorkshire tomorrow morning.Leer más
