... cutest children ever, and yes even i thought they were cute. As you all well know i despise babies so i hope you understand just how cute these 2 baby people were.<br><br>our story starts with a small black child shouting " blah blah blah blah black is blue- tiful". yes "blue" tifal. apparently his one phrase of english impressed small blonde child person enough to go over and befriend the bean. they even shared blocks. but alas when the train ...

... to my 2nd class mostly thanks to M. le proviseur. and its a lycee professionel class. these are the classes where they place kids who are not going to college, those destined to be in the work force....<br><br>so i try to play 2 truths and a lie, which is a bit too complicated for them, and instead just do introductions. they weren't super talkative so i asked them what their favorite things to do are.....<br>answers:<br>" ave sex weeth chrees' muzzer"<br ...

Just paid a fleeting visit to St Tropez on the way to Avignon (so we thought)... had to be done really.. a quick wander around and a very quick coffee. It was much smaller than I thought. Lots of nice boats but loads of tourists too.... that was about it!<br>

So we left St Tropez to head towards Avignon. I wanted to drive along the coast and we found a little road to take us there.. Little alright! It was about 11 or 17km of narrow winding steep roads. The worst part was the cars we occasionally ran into coming the other way and the big drop on the other side!<br>But it was all worth it. We found all these beautiful little beaches. We stopped at one and ...

We also took the short drive to Port Grimaud, to visit this small but new harbour town built in what was once marshland, but is now row after row of condos and homes built in a web of jetties to allow the homes to anchor their boats at their doorsteps. Of course, we would have rather spend our time on the beach, but with bad weather, Grimaud was a nice alternative.

The Yacht arrived in the Vieux Port around 8:00 AM on Tuesday. The seas were a little rough on the way in and there was a lot of wind, but overall the passage was uneventful. We spent the night in Marseille and in the morning we drove to meet the yacht in St. Tropez and arrive close to 11 AM. We just pulled up to the yacht and hardly even boarded until ...

... what we wanted. So the waitress had to leave. I will say that I hate when they only give you 3 minutes to think about this and I hate sounding like I am hard to please but the place was totally empty and it took the waitress another 15 minutes before she came back. Then, she had to check to make sure they had pizza. At this point I really regretted not leaving when they said they had no mussels. Sophie, in what turned out to be a terrible mistake, got the 15 euro menu. This ...

... to the world wars I have ever seen, lit up at night. That, and we had some translators so we could understand what it all means. Very inspiring. So all in all, Nice has by far been the best place we've been to. More likely than not, it's because of the people we have met, and the hostel is the most friendly place I have ever been in. And apparently when we talk French, the accent is sexy. As Mitchell would say, to the delight and endless amusement of ...

This Meditarranean house is really magnificent! After breakfast, Michel (the father) drove me (so kind of him) to the beach for my first experience in the Meditarranean sea. Everyone else seemed to be with someone else but I had fun anyway. The topless women weren't surprising, but I have to admit that I was surprised that they also played volleyball and swam topless with their children ...
