Villefranche

Wednesday, May 30th

This day did not start out as planned!  Wilhelm woke up with a very swollen, painful big toe!  Instead of going off to visit Eze, we took a cab to an ER in Nice!  The wait wasn’t too bad and the diagnosis was Gout!  Total bill including X-ray was 50€!!  Can’t imagine what the cost would have been in the USA!!

After the ER visit, we took the train down in to the Old Town section of Nice. It really was bittersweet....this is where we walked when our friends came to meet Charlie and me when we stopped in this port back in 2015. They had driven overnight to come and see us!

Walking the promenade brought back a lot of memories

See Wilhelm with my purple cane!

Picture from 2015.....This was the time our friends got to say goodbye to Charlie. It was a very special day for me. Although, Charlie and I took one cruise after this.....this really was his last good cruise and I’m so glad Alexandra, Ursula and Wilhelm were able to share this day with us
