Last lazy day in Cannes







We didn't get moving until about 10:00 this morning. Drove into town where they are preparing for the Film Festival. Lots of people were milling about and lots of construction going on. We sat on a park bench for almost 4 hours just watching the action, wondering if any of the passers-by were famous! Great people watching--one of my favorite things. We then came back to the hotel and took a nap---haven't done that the whole trip. Went out and bought a chicken for dinner, had a salad and French pastries. Almost time for bed!!! Some pictures of the day are attached. The red carpet is for the stars--they were just laying it out when we walked by. Tomorrow, we head for Italy and the Lake Como region--probably will stop somewhere halfway for the night.

That's some boat you are standing in front of Jim. Thinking of buying are we!!? Not much here. Barb and I are in physical therapy together each week. Getting old I guess. Christian just had his apendex removed Wed. and Doreen stayed in the hospital with him 3 days. She is worn out and Ralphs not doing well. Keep them in your prayers. Well, hope you get this. Take care and happy Mothers day Jim.....
