Nice!

Saturday the 8th September. We trained to Marseille, and met a CS guy, Guillaume. We had some Ricard and then headed to the Black seeds concert. The crowd was awesome! Soo many kiwis. And soo many people who had been to the game that day. Including some All Blacks!

Pics from the Black Seeds:

All in all, a great party. You know it's a good party when they start playing slice of heaven, and there's guys in unitards dancing to it!

After the party/concert, we drove to Nice with Guillaume. The next day we checked into a hostel, where we stayed the next 2 nights. In a giant room (10 beds). Things I learnt in Nice.. 10 bed hostel rooms suck, but you can meet cool people in hostels. You can also get stuck in room with drunken teenagers who don't care if you are trying to sleep at 5am when they get home. Meh, you win some you lose some.

Nice is pretty, but just a beachy town really. Lots of places to party, it's hot, and there's a beach.

 

While in Nice, we bussed over to Monaco. While there we saw (from L to R), gorgeous views of the sea, many boats, the casino at Monte Carlo, The Monaco Palace and the Church where Princess Grace and Prince Rainier are buried.

    

   

All in all, Monaco is very beautiful and soo clean! Oh, and it has a much nicer beach than Nice. There's no sand, but the pebbles are so small and smooth it's like getting a foot massage as you walk! Totally worth the 3euro to get from Nice. We also toured the palace while we were there, which is pretty, but kinda small. Still interesting though.

After this, needing a break from hostels etc, I trained to Lausanne to see a guy I know from uni and just sleep for a few days!
