Is NEGRESCO HOTEL Really Owned By Dogs? Great Walk from NEGRESCO HOTEL to CHATEAU. Nice, France

A WONDERFUL WALK from NEGRESCO HOTEL to CHATEAU. A fab history walk through Nice, France. A fab history walk through Nice France. In the first of ten walks between The Negresco in Nice and the Chapelle St Hospice on St Jean Cap Ferrat I uncover the rich history of the Negresco Hotel, sample a local delicacy, discover why Apollo's large appendage had him removed from Place Massena and tell the story of what happened to the Jewish people in Nice at the end of WW2.

Another brilliant video. Forgot how good is was. Uplifting and sad. A timely reminder of modern history.

Thanks Alex!

[@blutoblutarski2421]

Wonderful. Enjoy the education in your videos as well as your subtle and intellectual humor. And your voice, love your voice.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Bluto!

[@robertdd827]

I started watching your videos because of my interest in little city cars. I thought... quite entertaining, good editing & camera work. Let´s watch another. They are so good! Was watching this one while cleaning the flat, and now I'm sitting down looking at the screen. Really do have to clean now 🙂

[@MeandMonAmi]

Welcome aboard!

Another fabulous vlog Tim. So lovely to see Nice in all her glory. Thanks! X

[@sheilamcgugan8249]

Can't praise this video enough Tim absolutely loved it. Been in the old town and can't wait to get back. Is it really 10 years since Richard E Grant interviewed the Negrescos owner ? life is so short.!!!! Really looking forward to your next video.love this Idea!! Regards Brian

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Brian. Really glad you enjoyed. I’m looking forward to doing more..

[@globalonemusic2381]

Tim: Nice to see you up here again. :). In one of your last films, when you said you were "Going back to England", we thought you meant for good. We're glad you are back. Excellent film as always. :). Antoine

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks Antoine. Don’t worry you are stuck with me!;

[@globalonemusic2381]

Tim: Could you please answer a few questions for us ? 1) Because you returned to France, is it correct that England and France are welcoming each other's citizens on an unconditional basis ? 2) Was it a "hassle" to travel from England to France ? 3) On the Riviera and in Monaco, do people actually HAVE to wear facial coverings on the street in public, in restaurants, hotel lobbies, the beaches, etc. ? 4) Or, has most of the population pretty much become fed up with it all and behaves "normally" with themselves and each other ? (We hope). :) Thank you again for your input. Best to you. :) Antoine

[@haydfinley787]

Spectacular video can't wait for the next walks and history lessons. I've been in Nice for 3 years but never thought the river is still there under Masséna.

Thanks Hayd. Hopefully episode 2 this week.

Do you mean cruising?

"Cruising", Great movie. Really not updated on this issue, u might be right, YES. 25 years since Ive been in Nice, LIFE .

@@geirmevik7598 is that the one about the teacher?

[@geirmevik7598]

No clue about teachers whatsoever,

[@dpnice7721]

Excellent ! Lived here for over 30 yrs and that is the best tour/vlog I have seen. One disappointment is that you didn’t film some of the magnificent plants in the Collée Vert. You missed your third naked man whilst in the cemetery. There is a statue of the guardian who was a boxer. You have really wet my appetite for the next nine.

[@MeandMonAmi]

Thanks so much DP. I am seeking out that boxer!

[@dpnice7721]

@@MeandMonAmi When you enter the cemetery he is just on the left on a pedestal titled Gardien Des cendres.

[@MeandMonAmi]

I shall check him out.

ode to shoulder season travel. Great reminder of doin' the same route, but almost two years frozen out, etc etc. Un demi a la pression s'il vous plait, and it will me too.
