It was the perfect location, very close to everything. Just a few minutes away was a square where they had a market during the day and outdoor restaurants at night.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/globitrotter.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/06\/img_0075.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/globitrotter.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/06\/img_0075.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We walked all over town, here we are on our way up the Chateau Hill which has a stunning view of the city and the coast line.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/globitrotter.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/06\/img_0088.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/globitrotter.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/06\/img_0088.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>From the top of Chateau Hill you could also see the snow covered mountains in the north.

The colours in Nice are amazing, the houses have the warm yellow and red tones, the blue water and all the flowers with many different colours. I remember thinking the same the first time I was at the French Riviera a number of years ago and it was as striking as back then. I still love the colours.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/globitrotter.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/06\/img_0117.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/globitrotter.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/06\/img_0117.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The small boats in the harbour were also colourful where they were squeezed in between the huge yachts.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/globitrotter.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/06\/img_0105.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/globitrotter.files.wordpress.com\/2010\/06\/img_0105.jpg?w=300\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>A champagne picnic on the beach was an absolute must.
