Marseille and Nice: 12.26-12.29

Winter break=4 weeks of play time.

I spent my winter break with family in France and Ireland.

Marseille:






Traveling with the family is definitely different than traveling with friends. The plus to traveling with family: can splurge more on food and shopping. Foie gras, tar tar, and duck. MMMmm.

The highlight of Marseille for me: Unite d’ Habitation by Le Corbusier(shown below).

I REALLY like.

I liked the park area with its friendly little trees. I liked the massive piloti’s. I liked the primary colors. I liked the wood plank imprints. I liked the view of the city from the top. Andddd I LIKED the awesome rooftop with running track, pool, funky shaped ventilation shafts, playground, etc. So quirky. So weird. So cool. :D










Macaroons are kind of delicious...

Nice and the French Riviera:
