CAZ_10 [10 points]
Not that many beaches in the world have been 'invaded' by Invader. One of the 48 beaches of Antibes has been invaded. This one is the result of a re-activation as the original of 2007 had been deleted. Had to wait half an hour for direct sunlight which was no problem, waiting at the waterfront was not a problem. Parking was a huge problem here. "WELL PLAYED" is the message of FlashInvaders when you find this one.

Year of invasion: 2007
INVASION OF THE CÔTE D’AZUR
In the year 2007 Invader has invaded the entire coast of the French Rivièra. Instead of only one city he made a project of an entire region; Côte d’Azur. Spread out from La Ciotat to the Menton near the border of Italy.
The first wave consisted of 35 space invaders spread out over 24 cities with a total score of 990 points. In 2016 Invader put one invader up in Cavalaire-sur-Mer (CAZ_36) and in 2017 wave number 3 consisted another single one (CAZ_37).
Lots of them have been deleted throughout the years but there are already are about 9 space invaders re-activated.

Juan-les-Pins in Antibes on the French Riviera. It was late in the afternoon by the time we got here. No one seemed to be swimming. A few boys of about high-school age were standing in the water having their pictures taken with their topless girlfriends -- or was it the topless girls who were having pictures taken with their boyfriends? Either way, I missed a shot of them.
Rue des Nielles 11/06/2017 11h27
I parked my car about 500 meters from CAZ_10 (Plage des Ondes) because parking is quite a problem here near the beaches. And I was lucky to find this Citroën C6 parked along the Rue des Nielles. I took some pictures not realizing that the owner and his wife just walked behind me. "Qu'est-ce que vous fait monsieur?" was the start of a nice talk about Citroëns C6 model. This gentleman was very content with this car which is already a classic.
Citroën C6
The Citroën C6 was an executive car that was produced by the French car maker Citroën from 2005 to 2012.
Inspired by the C6 Lignage prototype which was first shown at the Geneva Motor Show in the spring of 1999, but differs from the concept car's styling in minor details.
At the time, it was hoped that the C6 would go into production by the end of 2001 as the replacement for the aging XM, which was first produced in 1989.
The XM ceased production in June 2000, and the first C6 rolled off the production line almost five years later.
The C6 is aimed as a stylish alternative to executive cars like the BMW 5 Series and the Audi A6, and it has been described as "spaceship that rides on air", "charmingly idiosyncratic" and "refreshingly different".
Citroën hopes that the C6's selling points will be its innovative technology, which includes a head-up display, a lane departure warning system, xenon directional headlamps (also available on the Citroën C4 and Citroën C5), Hydractive 3+ suspension with electronically controlled springing and damping, and a rear spoiler which automatically adjusts to speed and braking.
Former French president Jacques Chirac has chosen the Citroën C6 as his official car, and has been using a pre-series car before the model was introduced. The French ambassador to the UK also has a Citroën C6 as his official car, with the registration 'FRA 1'.
Citroën officially ceased production of the C6 on December 19, 2012, after only 23,384 units built.
