Travelling on Sunday

**alroumi** · 07-08-2008

Hello fellow respected SLKworld members,

Well its time for me to take a break and relax because this year has been dreadful, a very draining year with lots and lots of work. I just wanted to say that I will be going to Nice,France this Sunday for my summer holiday. I have really enjoyed my time here and its a pleasure chatting with you reputable members. I hope I helped to contribute and moderate this forum as I feel its my cyber home.

I have done a pretty good schedule this year and I will be repeating the similar one that I did back in 2000, now its been 8 years since I've stepped foot in Spain and I am really looking forward for it.

July 15-18: Cannes
Early July 19th Morning I am on my way out of Port Mandeliue to St Tropez for a couple of days, then its to Port Cros and Port Courolle were I have a reservation for an exclusive restaurant up the mountains. I really miss it and me and my cousin call it the Restaurant of Kings.

Next stop is in Barcalona were we will reside for a couple of days and after that were in Palma de Mallorca/Ibiza.On the way back we might go to San Remo and Monaco depends if we've got time.

I cant wait to step out of the airplane and head to my favourite coffee shop in Nice airport which is called Paul for an espresso and a nice Paninni for breakfast. I utterly hate airplane food as it reminds me of being in a hospital, the DSLR camera is ready and I am looking forward for photography.

My favourite saying is lets pack the Polo shirts and the loafers were in Cote D'Azure. I miss our 1993 R129 SL for 15 year old car and 85,000km thats nothing.

I am looking forward for the trip to rest, get out and enjoy the sun. My favourite things to do is riding the Banana, Catamaran and Jetski. For those who will be in Cannes dont forget to checkout a restaurant called L'ondine on the crousiette which can be identified by its yellow flags. Another favourite of mine is the Vesovious which is besides the Martinez hotel and also make sure you visit the restaurant besides the Carlton hotel which I am trying to dig its name for my head.

For relaxing after the lunch at 4pm-5pm I highly recomend the Havanna cafe & lounge which is right besides the Dolce and Gabanna store, around 2 minutes walking to the left of the Noga Hiltons Hotel.

Enjoy the forum and I hope I will be back to share pictures with you members and do the story telling.

Thanks mate!
That was before my Kleemann wheels and the new exhaustsystem, but it was a very nice ride all the way from Sweden to Barcelona and then back to Juan l P. I drove about 6000 km on the trip - wonderful!
Love Grasse, Monaco, Nice, Antibes, Cannes (I think that I Visited the restaurant close to Carlton, but that was many years ago).,
We visited St Tropes but couldnt find any hotels available, it was totally occupied, a lot of famous people at that week for some reason I dont know......
But again - enjoy your trip and relax as much as possible!!

Have a great trip Mo!

Loved Nice when we were there about 8 years ago, stayed in a large hotel right on the Med. Of course you had to dodge all the "Ladies of the evening" lining the shore road. But it was a sexually transmitted diseases conference so we didn't have to go far for samples!!

Hmmmmmm - given the "kleemann-i-zation" of your 55, I'd say that's not completely true!
