My best memories of Nice from our visit in 2002 are of the market in the old Italian section of town. Nice was traded back and forth a few times by Italy and France before becoming permanently part of France in 1860. But the old part of town, leading up from the waterfront, was – and still is – very Italian.

Today I went to the “Vielle Ville” (the Old Town) and spent a few hours wandering there.

I was delighted to find that the outdoor market was open on Sunday.

My favorite pictures are from the flower market.

Here are some Valentine flowers for you!
