6/19 & 6/20 Boston to Nice
Flying is rarely fun, and this trip's flying was no exception: delays lead to a close connection, and that to lost luggage, and that to our spending the night in Nice-- which is the worst city on the French Rivera. On the other hand, the trip to Logan gave Eric the opportunity to pick out his outfit and some sport accessories for his next big Friday night out in the sports bars of Fanuiel Hall. Go Sox!!!
The baggage delay might have been all bad if Amos had brought the car rental information along with him, instead of assuming that there would be an internet terminal in Nice's airport. Just the NAME of the car rental company would have been enough to avoid spend two hours waiting in the long line of EVERY SINGLE car rental company just to ask "Parlez-vous anglais? ... Did we reserve a car from you? ... No seriously, we just forgot which company we rented from. Could you check under the name Amos...." The sporty overnight bags we received from British Airways were our only consolation. Fortunately, once we got the car, our hotel (Hotel Marina, 11 rue St. Philip, Nice, 04 93 44 54 04) had a place to park it for free with the price of the room).
