well cannes is a nice little town, can't complain. It's so relaxing and everything is done at such a leasiurely rate. There are some mega yachts here and I think most of the people here live pretty good. I had one of the famous smashed sandwiches I had heard so much about. It was good but then again after eating galley food for 3 weeks I would think a mud pie would be a explosion of flavor. I have spent most of my time on the ship though, working and working and working its my lot in life it seems. But I do get to step out on the decks and look out over a foriegn land and thats pretty darn cool if you ask me. We have a couple more cool ports on the books though right now I obviously can't tell you. I am certainly looking forward to them.
As some of you may know I was once in Nice france which is about 20 miles up the road. This place remind me alot of Nice. I have talked with the locals and they have said that as well, oddly enough there is a large group of russians in Nice. They used to come during the winters and when the soviet union fell they came to Nice thinking that the whole thing would blow over quickly and they could move back to the soviet union and yet here they are still there today.
I have yet to find a internet cafe so I cannot upload pictures like I would like too. though I find myself less taking pictures and more just walking around admiring the sights and sounds.
As always my thoughts go out to all of you and I hope you all are doing well. take care
