La Voile D Or St-Jean-Cap-Ferrat

ok, it was more "collecting a new country" than being really interested in Monaco. Strange, when you go there from Nice airport by bus it costs you 18 € one way, when you go from Nice bus terminal it costs 1 € one way. Monaco is a very clean city. I have never seen so many big and expensive cars. I saw the casino and the castle. Nice, but not spectacular.

... have an amazing view from Colline du Chateau. On saturday (November 28) we had sunshine and 19 degrees (end of November) and I was even swimming in the sea (15 gegrees), on sunday, November 29 we had rain and thunderstorms so that caused a delay of the plane of three hours. Best breakfast in town you find in "Les pains a tables" close to the market. Nice is a city I´d love to visit once a year minimum.....

... gesture. We can't change the world but we can change the way these children start off in life and who knows where that will lead....

It is less than 4 weeks now until I leave. There is much to do. I am trying to prepare myself for "teaching" 20 - 25 children. A bit of a challenge that. Much as I have known that I have always wanted to do something like this, now that it ...

... Moochelin star cooking It is my job to drive everywhere and keep Scoobs in good health, in return it is Kim's job to cook and clean... sounds like old school type casting but it works! The food has been great (and so has the driving) Kim has even joked about writing a Cookbook for campervaning. We have a 2 burner stove, griller and oven, as well as a small fridge/freezer and limited storage space, so our food is always super fresh. The day always starts with our ...

On this morning we left Switzerland and travelled south into Italy en-route to the French Riviera. The scenery was pretty spectacular, with snow-white capped, jagged mountains that seemed to swallow the highway. Surreal!

When we arrived at our hotel we had about 30 mins to get ready for our trip into Monaco! On our drive to Monaco we crossed the bridge that Grace Kelly was killed on in a car accident. The roads are ...

... a plane or bus. Dee had horror memories of training to Syd for summer camps, but this was totally different. Each seat reclined, had a tray table and even a powerpoint and coat hook - we couldn't get over how luxurious and comfortable it was and agreed that the Eurail pass was a good investment as we got to see more of France in the train journey than if we had flown.

The hostel we were staying in is quite famous, as it is located in a converted monastery, where the monk who wrote 'Le ...

... baggy. He says I went home with a pair of pants with a 34” waist and a 34” in seem. How was I to know that the pants that actually fit me best were a 30” waist and a 30” in seem. I just didn’t now, I had never had new pants before.

Now here I am, just five years later in France touring the Côte d’ azur, living aboard a fully crewed superyacht and touring massive homes and gardens of people who were so wealthy that they are now tourist attractions.

... we saw tons of gorgeous cars: Ferraris, Lamborghinis, Aston Martins, Porsches and Bentleys everywhere! The security gaurd in front of the casino asked us where we were from, and when we replied "Canada", he asked me if I was carrying "sirop d'erable" (maple syrup) in my Nalgene bottle. I told him that of course I was, but he didn't beleive me, and walked away. Probably a good thing... I don't want to be the one to start ...

... otherwise he would had had to pay the 100 euro taxi fare back to Nice. Some people got dropped off in town to go out but after a huge last night last night alot of us just went back to the hotel and hung out in the rooms chatting for awhile. It was nice to relax after having a bis one last night. COSTS: 10E- black top 8.50E- Vanilla Room spray .90E- postcards 8.99E- sparkly bag 10E- brooch 13E- dinner&desert .80E- postcards

... how rare Peanut butter is and that i am glad i brought some with me! Anyone ive met from Cananda or the US have told me how hard it is to come across peanut butter! And the Pizza here isn't like Pizza at home, its on like pita bread, and theres cheese and all of that, it is quite good, different though, and you would have a hard time trying to find a pepperoni pizza! Not to mention the bread. Bread is cheap so that works out nicely, we ...
