Nïmes, Stay at Home Day

Day 63  Monday, October 30, 2023

It is pouring rain this morning so we have a nice slow start to our day.  At noon Bob decides to go for a walk when the rain lessens and I start an online chat with Apple.  I had a new battery put into my MacBook in August and its 3 month warranty will have expired by the time we get home.

I was told that if I had any problems I just needed to contact Apple and let them know so they can record it and then it could wait until I was home to be repaired.  So that is what I tried to do…for over an hour!  Talk about frustration.  Finally I was able to arrange to have a supervisor call me  because our France SIM car doesn’t have international long distance.  The not so bright chat guy suggested I borrow someone’s phone so that I could make the call!  He was absolutely useless!  Yet he kept saying “I understand what you are saying 100 %”

I know this is a bit of a rant…but I just needed to get it off my chest!  Luckily the supervisor was amazing.  Within minutes it was all taken care of and I had received multiple apologies.

Bob only took one photo on his walk that went by the coliseum. Nïmes has a lot of water features.

At 5:00 it began to pour again and it came down in buckets!  Here is a very short video of the rain.  https://youtu.be/6S1s_y5HO_8    The weather has definitely changed, and it looks like we will be getting cold and rain for the next few weeks.
