A Rainy Day in Cannes

We had one day of full-on torrential rain during our vacation in Antibes. For some reason, Karim and I thought that it would be a perfect chance to go on an excursion to St. Tropez. So, we hopped on a train that took us part of the way there, only to discover that it was Assumption Day and it would take us 3 hours by bus to make the rest of the journey. No thank you. So, we hopped back on the train and decided to stop in Cannes on our way back to Antibes.

Rather than glitz and glamour, we encountered more torrential rain there and people hopping around like drowned rats. Here are a couple snapshots of our adventure:

Here's Karim looking dapper as ever in lilac on lilac
A very cool shot Karim took in the middle of the street
When it REALLY started to pour, we gave up and headed inside for a drink
And Karim proceeded to take this strange series of photos of me
Here I'm asking him to knock it off!
When the rain let up a touch, we headed back to the train station and retreated back to Antibes and spent the evening relaxing and playing cards with the wise Becca who knew better than to venture out on a day like that!
