Turns out the beach in Nice is made of pebbles...this came to shock me when i walked down, in the hopes of laying and sun baking (although it was not even warm enough to do that)
Today Nat and I spent the day exploring. Not really knowing what would await us in Nice (other then a beach) we had expectations of a relaxing day. We walked around in the morning trying to scout out a nice breakfast shop, this came to quite a pickle when everything costs over 10Euro, and that was just for a coffee and a pastry. We finally stumbled onto a cute little bakery where we bought giant bread rolls filled with mushrooms, tomato, olives and cheese. There is one thing i have learnt here and that is that cheese dose not go amiss. In the short time i have been in France, i think i have taken all the cheese i can!
Nat then left to walk to the train station, so we didn't end up getting the worst trains to Rome for tomorrow (unfortunately we still have an 11hr train ride, starting at 7am) and i walked around the antique market, and down the back streets of Nice. It's crazy what you can find when you get lost in Nice, there were sooo many gelato shops everywhere (evidence that we are much closer to Italy then in Paris)
We then had lunch on the beach, and shopped till we dropped on the main streets! I'm proud to say that i am now up with French fashion! :D
Tomorrow is another exhausting train riding day, starting with a 6am wake up. But it's all worth it. Rome tomorrow and Florence with my family in 3days time. Life cannot get better then this! :D
