Mercure Sophia Antipolis 3m Valbonne

... br>Hotel was fantastic. 5 star luxury with sauna and steam room, which I enjoyed. Roof top pool overlooked the Mediterranean coast line. Ferrari's frequently pulling up out front with people arriving to gamble at the casino (the hotel has its own and is right next door to the main Monte Carlo casino). €500 notes being handed over at casino tables.

I went to the main casino on one night with high expectations. It was v quiet. Probably ...

... 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....

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.....

... Monday’ by the Bangles at the airport. Too true...

12hrs after i checked out of my Barcelona hotel, i am in Monte Carlo!!!!! Luckily got the last bus from the Nice airport to Monaco. Amazing bus trip here. I think i was wide-eyed and jaw dropped for much of it. Although it is night, you can see some amazing views, yachts and cross some bridges with HUGE drop-offs down into the coastal valley. The streets truly are Grand Prix style. Can't wait to ...

... Cuda! I jeszcze zatrzymywaly sie, zeby Cie przepuscic - zanim nawet zdazylas dojsc do pasow. Mialam bardzo malo czasu, ale to, co zobaczylam, przekonalo mnie, ze to nie moj ostatni raz w Ksiestwie Monako.

Every time we were in the picturesque town of Villefranche in the French Azur Coast, I always wanted to travel to Monaco. My schedule though wouldn`t let me do it. That day I managed with the time and straight ...

... shared the curry chicken with cilantro and coconut rice and it was really good. Today we are planning on hitting the beach, we are praying for good weather, it has been really nice so far, but we saw rain in the forecast. The weather forecasts haven't been accurate so far though. It feels like we have transferred to a beach vacation, and the scenery and atmosphere reminds me of what I have seen of Greece. It really doesn't feel like we are in France at all.

... closed and it's only about 2pm. We head to a fun fair like a mini Luna Park - yuk - that has been set up on the road that is part of the F1 Grand Prix track near the swimming pool (for all you F1 GP fans) and look for bad sweet food. Pete has churros and Al has something else (at least with a French name) that's full of chocolate (nutella actually). We head back to the ship - stopping ...

Today was our free day in Nice. We got up at 7:45 and went down to breakfast. All they had were a croissant and a baguette each. We originally thought it was too cold for the beach, so the original plan was to go to the Modern Art Museum and then the Chateau. When we got outside and saw how nice it was, we changed our plans to the Chateau and then the beach. I don't think we realized just how high we had to climb, or that there wasn't an actual chataeu, just ...

... still don't know what that smile is about!! Some of the other paintings were as big as a house, Michaelangelo's paintings were on the roof - don't know how he got up there!! Just got a glipse of what is there- want to go back. one thing I did find is that the pick pockets were great there, our backpacks were opened all over the louve - at least there wasn't anything that important in them. Onto Notre Dame- beautiful church with stained windows ...
