So for 20 euros we got a parasol, a chair, drink service and our own private washroom. Best investment ever. We spent all afternoon on our comfy chairs, ordered lunch on the beach, drink fruity beverages and shaded our faces from the sun. If we just went to the public beach we would have been lying on rocks with no drinks. Obviously this was not an option. I believe we made the right choice.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"French Riviera - Nice, France\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/33736956@N08\/7558051338\/\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"French Riviera - Nice, France\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8005\/7558051338_259f8541b5_b.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"French Riviera - Nice, France\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/33736956@N08\/7558022234\/\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"French Riviera - Nice, France\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8006\/7558022234_417d50a2fb_b.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Lunch on the Beach- French Riviera - Nice, France\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/33736956@N08\/7558085376\/\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Lunch on the Beach- French Riviera - Nice, France\" src=\"http:\/\/farm9.staticflickr.com\/8421\/7558085376_1fc45ed2cb_b.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>No need to move when lunch is served right to you.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a title=\"French Riviera - Nice, France\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/33736956@N08\/7557999608\/\" rel=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"French Riviera - Nice, France\" src=\"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7276\/7557999608_a98085f928_b.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h2>\u00a0Fragonards Perfumery<\/h2>\n<p>Just outside of Nice was a perfumery we got to stop at.
