Le roi de Jordanie et son épouse, Rania, avaient invité, ce mardi le couple Sarkozy à un dîner entre amis à Nice. En se rendant à “La petite Maison”, Carla et Nicolas Sarkozy, n’ont pas pu éviter un mini-bain de foule aux abords du Vieux-Nice. The king of Jordan and his wife, Rania, invited Mr. and Mme Sarkozy to a dinner between friends in Nice last Tuesday. While making their way to “La Petite Maison”, Carla and Nicolas Sarkozy could not avoid enjoying the admiration of the crowds near Old Nice.

This article in the Nice Matin newspaper made me feel a bit more comfortable about walking the streets of Nice. It certainly made me want to check out the restaurant “La Petite Maison”, which is about a ten minute walk from the apartment we will be renting. From the photos in the newspaper, it appears that the restaurant has a nice outside terrace. La Petite Maison is one of those restaurants with branches in expensive cities around the world, in this case Paris, London, Cannes, Dubai and Beirut. So far, I have been unable to find on the internet the menu for the main restaurant in Nice; that is unusual.

This is my first posting on my new website, bonvoyageurs.com. My previous blog website, blog.com, had been having technical difficulties these past few days, which had hampered my ability to post blogs. My blogs did not show the photos I had uploaded. Last year, I had to move away from blogger.com because the Chinese were blocking access to it.
