While on route towards Nice, Giorgio (my friend in Monaco), dropped a text message to check if I was in Montpellier or already in Nice.
I was originally going to spent a couple days in Montpellier first before making my way towards the French Riviera and changed my plans when I heard about the carnivals in Nice and Menton.
According to Giorgio, the police just arrested some terrorists in Montpellier, with bombs discovered in the home, and wanted to check my safety.
Imagine if the police had not discovered that in time, I might had been caught in something unfortunate!
Phew!
That probably explained the higher than usual security John and I encountered when we went to the train station in Lyon!
