First Day Nice

2 Swedish 27-year-old college buddies sunbathe on rocks 15 meters from the Mediterranean waters in Nice, a few hundred people nearby, maybe still, or walking on le Promenade des Anglais.

A young newlywed heterosexual couple from Louisiana or Tennessee dine at Bistrot de l'Opéra, next to a mother and adult son from Texas. They talk almost constantly and take a few photos.

A four-year old dark-haired boy watches the Mediterranean pass through a 2nd level commuter train window, on the way to Cannes at 9 something in the morning. 

His mom crouches behind him, watchful, pointing, tending, attending. Sunlight streams down on us. We all catch glances. We take the time, have time; forever is not long.
