Arrived in Cannes early in the morning on Friday, June 17 both apprehensive and excited about the festival that I’ve heard so much about. Since this was a last minute trip, all the hotels were sold out and we had rented an apartment. Much to our relief the apartment was a good size, well furnished and centrally located. Phew! Spent the rest of Friday and Saturday getting to know the town. It really is a quaint place – cobbled streets, little cafes, beautiful beaches, many holidaying European families, luxury hotels, seafront restaurants, bars, designer shops and of course the Palais where the Cannes Lions is being held.
