Two days in France and a lot can happen. There is a little town called Nice- but pronounced like Niece- and I stayed there for a couple of days to enjoy the fabulous food and the beautiful port city.
We visited a perfume factory where I got to see how the different oils and chemicals and fragrances were all put together to make Eau de Toilettes and perfumes. It smelled wonderful
On the first night, I went to a little cafe restaurant with my family for a lovely seafood extravaganza. It satisfied me until around 12:00 am when I got a horrible case of food poisoning. Unfortunately the rest of the trip was just downhill from there. The doctors there did not speak much English, and when my mom (thankfully a pediatrician who knows a little French) went to the pharmacy- a little room with local medicines- she was able to find something.
The last night, my parents went to a restaurant where the food was AMAZING... but I couldn't eat anything- so I just watched them eat the lovely presented platters, which I slurped some vegetable soup and munched on pieces of bread. Although it was seven courses, it felt like much more as I watched in envy.
Maybe next time my trip to Nice will be nicer.
