Nice

I was looking so forward to Nice. All I've ever heard about the place is how sunny it is and how beautiful it is and I was not let down.

Just a 40 minute drive to Monacco and Monte Carlo from here it is the ideal holiday destination. It is now on my list of places I would like to have my honeymoon.

The Promenade stretches the entire length of the beach. We hired roller blades and glided down the whole stretch. (by glided I mean staggered as we were not all that gifted in the roller blading department.) I took out a woman on a bike who appeared to be in her late 70's... ooops!

We visited a French perfumery and the Grand Casino in Monte Carlo. We also found a lovely little Australian bar got completely smashed and then wondered the streets of Nice for a good hour trying to find our hotel. I ended up having to call my mum and get her to google the address of our hotel and then talk us through the way home like she was my own personal GPS.

Beautiful Beautiful Nice...
