the rain in spain falls mainly on the plain; the sun in nice makes scarf-wearing vistors look dumb

HY's office Christmas bash was held at Nice this year, and luckily I was able to tag along. It's not as crazy as it sounds--99% of the employees are either married, baby-carried, or tarried together (we are none of the above), so they'd like to t.a.k.e.i.t.e.a.s.y. The usual notion of a holiday is when one gets nicely toned-up, yet if you look at past getaway pictures, HY and I are always wrapped in winter jackets shivering in wind and rain--this time it's totally different, yeah!

Highlights of the weekend:
1) Men skipping pebbles + throwing them at each other.
2) Male whingers + brave female swimmer swimming in the sea.
3) Tasted a delicious coconut biscuit + olives at local market.
4) Snails for dinner.
5) Me not having to speak French once.

Any rhyming suggestions?
