Cannes...the experience...part 2...
Our second day in Cannes was bright, hot and sunny again. We had breakfast in the room and then went down to meet the others in the Hotel Reception. We had a trip round the harbour planned in which we would see HP's experimental boat Proteus. I think the pictures speak for themselves, its certainly a weird looking machine. Apparently, we're among very few people in the world who've seen this bizarre craft up close and moving.
After the boat trip we went back to La Majestic and the HP Studio where we'd been printing off some fantastic photos on the HP Large Format Printers. We then had a wander around Cannes and stopped off at some of the shops that had pictures from the red carpet the night before. We bought a couple of them as they were pretty good pictures and to be honest you would never get photos like that again.
We headed back to the hotel and got in our transfer back to the airport. This time it was a blacked out Range Rover. As we left (after rolling over the foot of the doorman with my case) they had put crash barriers up outside our hotel as Kelly Brook and Billy Zane wee staying there and were also doing an interview on the roof!
So, back to Nice airport, we had a bit of time to kill so we had a look round the duty-free. SJ decided to buy a new watch, very nice, a diamond Breitling. The flight home was OK although we were both pretty tired. We arrived into Luton on time and picked the car up and drove home. All in all a very, very good couple of days.
