Overcoming technical difficulties in Orange

I couldn't get an internet connection until we got to the hotel in Orange with free wifi.  I'll try later to add photos of me in the Med at Nice where we had a beachfront lunch of seafood in various forms. The saffron seafood risotto was so good!  

Orange was an ancient Roman military retirement community, like our VIrginia Beach. It gets its name because the House of Nassau-Orange, the same royal family of Holland, used to rule this area. It only became French in the 1600s. The very little I've seen so far reminds me of San Juan and Santa Barbara, two tropical colonial towns. We've had gorgeous California weather and landscapes so far.
