These are kind of random, but just a few of the things I've seen and actually thought to take a picture of.
Went to Antibes, a neighboring town. Pretty rich area. So this is the yacht yard. There is an old fort in the background.
This is also in Antibes. The picture doesn't do justice. That coast there is actually Nice and some stuff in between. Behind it are the hills and pre-alpes that we can't really see from Nice because we are too close to them.
Socca is a local specialty. This is how they cook it. It is basically a giant tortilla made with chickpeas. Here we have an old roman road. There are some ruins of an arena or town or something nearby. This is just up the hill from where I live.
The beach at sunset. Rocky, but still very pretty. I mean it is the Mediterranean. :)
Taken from the hill above where I live. Here you can see most of the city, the sea, and that hill in front of the sea is the the site where the ancient castle of Nice once stood. The big gray building near the center of this picture is actually the school where I work.
This is a sculpture garden in front of the library. I originally wondered why something that clearly to me says "blockhead" should represent an area of information, learning, and education. But a statue inside the library makes me believe the big square is meant to represent a book. So a suppose "bookhead" could be interpreted more positively.
