Woke early of course, it was 1pm to us. Wobbly on my feet, still not sober after last night. Brekky at a nearby patisserie, then a couple of km brisk walk to the port to find the ferry to St Tropez before its 9am departure.
Day 01, Saturday, Nice
Taxi to our apt
My hard-won Qantas Frequent Flyer Lifetime Gold membership performed brilliantly. With Emirates I was able to choose aisle seats on every leg, got 46kg luggage allowance (my extra large suitcase weighed 22.5kg), boarded with business class to get my bag in the overhead before everyone else, priority luggage (which worked at Nice Airport), a greeting from the cabin manager, and access to the Qantas and Emirates lounges. Terrific.
Day 00, Friday, Dubai
Another year, another trip. Three of us this time, Don Sutherland, Billy Prendergast and me, off to Nice, then on motorcycles to Italy, Switzerland, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Corsica. No photos taken at the airport, this is from Day -1 at Jan Cheong Chinese Restaurant.
