The Illuminated City

Nice's adventures haven't ended yet.  This time it's the after-dark giant float parade that winds around the city to honor the Italian traditional l: Corso Illuminé. 

For this entry, I'm really only including photos--they speak for themselves. 









Okay, one caption: yes, I did reach out and touch it. 




Two captions: this guy definitely hit me in the face.







If you'd like more commentary you can visit this helpful little link to read a vivid description of the atmosphere at Carnaval in Nice (the blog is from 2009, when the theme was King of Masquerades.)

End Nice adventure.  Exhale.
