working out for Disney

[93boomer]

Good morning-

I did my "cricket yoga" this morning. They seemed louder than usual. Plus, I had a partner in the form of some sort of beetle on my mat.

In the middle of our trip to visit my MIL, we went to Nice. Here are a few photos from Nice.

Here is a shot of one of the public beaches. There are quite a few private beaches where you rent the chair and umbrella for a full or half day. They have proper restaurants and bars on them, too. I'm not really a beach person and the first week of my vacation was spent recuperating from my food poisoning. I really wanted to move around outside.

A square with a fountain. I think the square might be called Garibaldi? People's dogs were wading in it. It was funny to see.

This is part of the same square, I believe. It is bisected by tram tracks.

A narrow alley.

We only went for three nights and then flew back to England. We spent a few more nights at my MIL's house and flew back to the US.

Bucket list!

@epcotisbest loving your Hawaii pix. That place is so beautiful!

Yes, @Zipitidoda I sometimes make breakfast in the room, even in Hawaii. See the little red-headed bird on the balcony railing? It joined us for breakfast a couple of mornings. We did not feed it though as there are signs asking tourists not to feed the birds, feral cats or chickens.

Do you mind if I download a copy of the landscapes for my phone wallpaper? I won’t do the ones with you or your pretty wife.

Thank you. I would consider that an honor.

Cooked one of my favorites for supper last night - Shrimp and Grits. Was very good even using frozen shrimp.

No rice, lots of cheese grits on the bottom then diced red peppers, diced tomatoes, diced onion, thinly sliced mushrooms, crumbled sausage, olive oil, black pepper and some reduced tomato sauce and hot sauce sautéed until kinda thick. Then add the shrimp last as they don't take long and are easy to get over done. I don't really follow a recipe, just toss things together. It is usually different each time I make it, but always good.

Tofu and grits? I might try it. Might.

Finally got my Hawaii souvenirs hung on the wall. From left, light mahogany soprano size, Hawaiian koa concert size and dark mahogany tenor size. I like having all three different size ukuleles on display.
