Carts
Monday, August 24, 2009
Tonight, we are headed to the airport for a flight to Mulhouse to surprise my aunt Marie who is turning 97 tomorrow, so this airport photo, taken last Saturday, is a good choice for today’s blog entry. At Nice airport, carts used to be freely available in the baggage claim area. The result was that people left them all over the place, so they ended up being a problem in the parking lots. Now one needs a one euro coin which one gets back upon returning the cart. This is fine for people who come from countries that use the euro, but others are unlikely to be able to get a cart with this system. Ideally, there should be coin-less carts that people would voluntarily return to a designated collection area, but human nature being what it is, this is not about to happen. Pity...
