When I finally got up out of my bed, I plopped on the couch and started watching some TV. I made myself some scrambled eggs...yummy!!! Once again, one of the best meals, ever! Then, Aunty Nicks has a great big satellite that broadcasts television from England so this was the first time (other than the parties in Ashley's room on surfthechannel.com) that I got to sit and flip through television shows. I got to catch up on some old Ricki Lake episodes...they have an entire channel dedicated to Wedding TV (Tanya would loveee this) so I got to watch some 'zilla episodes, etc. A great morning, er, afternoon! Well, besides the fact that after I got out of the shower I was putting on someone else's clothes and not my own...
Then when Aunty Nicks got home she took me out on the town. We headed to Cannes. (I hope I'm spelling this right...all s's are silent). French is definitely not an easy language to pick up - it's not phonetic. First we went driving by the Port of Cannes, walked down the strip with the Louis Vouitton, Gucci and the likes, then we ended up on the way to the red carpet of the Independent Film Festival. I can't remember the name, it was Palais something. While we were taking some pictures on the red carpet, we happened to hear some music and noticed that some B-boppers were getting ready to start their show. So, we found a seat and ended up watching them perform - they were actually really good. They actually might have a chance of winning on So You Think You Can Dance...they should try!
The show ended just in time for Sunset...the sky turned a pinkish color and it felt cool - it was beautiful. We walked down the coast, looking at the mountains in the distance. It was really peaceful...
We rushed back so that we would make it in time to reach the Wal-Mart type store so that I could at least buy my own underwear...and that we did. Can you believe that everything closes at 7 PM? That's the ONE store that remains open...crazy!
We came home and Aunty Nicks and I sat on the couch and watched Coyote Ugly (I think that's what it was called)...a cute American movie. After that, you would think that I would have a difficult time going to bed because I didn't wake up until 2 pm...ugh, no...
