Nice, Monacco and Cannes

OK its been ages since I've had a chance to get on here, so I will try to quickly catch you up on things. First of all TIm and flew too Nice which is a lovely little town on the east side of France.

The apartment we stayed at was absolutely amazing, and every morning we woke up and looked out to million dollar yachts which was rather nice. Each day was spent wither exploring Nice itself which has a lovely little old town, trying to use French at the markets (which i'm horrible at), we went rollerblading along the beach one day which was nice, and we also went on day trips to both Cannes and Monaco.

In Monaco we visited the Monte Carlo casino which was exactly what you'd expect from James Bond...not just Porches or those common Ferrari's, but more like Maybachs, Roles Royce and Bentleys. I invested five euros...well worth it!

I Cannes we strolled around and again looked at the superyachts. We also spent the day visiting admiring the money and I couldnt but help think about Entourage.

And each evening involved Fromage, a bottle of Vino...and we were also taken out by a nice Irish girl and her French boyfriend (girl we met on the plane) which was quiet nice.

Yay an update. I'm excited. I'd nearly stopped bothering to look because I thought you'd given up with it. Thanks for this. I'll look forward to more.
