Half Term : going round

Being half term holiday in England it's a good excuse to be off for a week. I arrived Monday night in Montpellier and stopped there just long enough to have a look at the mail, have a piano lesson, arrange the proxy vote for the 1st round of the Elections Régionales on 14th March and spend an evening with a friend. Then off again to go to visit my friend P. in Antibes.
The weather forecast was pretty bad for yesterday so we had decided to go to see a film in Nice. It turned out that it was an exceptionaly sunny and mild day - they had a very cold and wet winter so far - and as it happened we missed the film because of communication issues. We went to see the Wim Delvoye's exhibition (see : http://images.google.com/images?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=s&hl=en&source=hp&q=wim+delvoye&um=1&ie=UTF-8&ei=mUR-S4erB82TjAf8ycXMDQ&sa=X&oi=image_result_group&ct=title&resnum=4&ved=0CCEQsAQwAw) at the MOMAC. Afterwards we had lengthy discussions about his stuffed tattooed pigs.
