After watching Leap Year, sleeping a little, and then watching the beginning of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, I arrived yesterday at around 9 am (local time). The excitement kept me awake all morning - it was my natural caffeine. But then the unavoidable jet lag kicked in.
This morning I went to mass to the Église Sainte Marguerite - most of the churches here are Catholic. Did you know that most of the French population is Catholic? The percentage is even larger than the one in Mexico! Here I had my first encounter with Cannois poverty - there were beggars outside the church.
Anyways, after went to the beach for the first time, and then to the center of Cannes, where the 63rd Cannes Film Festival is in full throttle. And, what a beautiful city this is!
It is impossible to describe with words what I saw today. I can only say that I am in paradise.
