If there are any LUGgers there who want to meet over a pastis, great. I have never been to that part of France, so any tips on what to do, see and photograph would also be appreciated. Nathan Nathan, After Paris, Nice is my favorite city in France. There are many sights, many meals, and many wines. However, you will only have time for one peak experience in your busy schedule. My advice is; go to the open market in the old city, buy a bag of mixed olives, a fresh baguette, a bottle of wine, and walk down to the beach to watch topless girls play volleyball. Restraunts in Nice offer superb local specialties that combine the best of French and Italian cooking. (Nice was "Italian" until 1860.) Try to extend you visit. Bill Lawlor
