We're now in the French Rivera, in particular Nice. This area is known for been the playing ground for the rich and famous. While we're in Nice I have to walk around all day wearing a bright yellow workers vest with undies hanging off it. Each time we go to a new place people get nominated for what we call 'topdick'. Basically if you do anything stupid, dumb or embarrassing you'll get nominated and then people vote for who deserves it. Well surprise surprise, of course I was bound to end up with it sometime! But it's all good fun :)
Anyway, our first night we went to go to a theme park which is next to where we're staying, unfortunately being a Sunday night it was closed though :(
The next day we got dropped into Nice. On the way we past the airport where we saw at least 50 odd private jets all parked. This is where the celebrities fly into and then catch a helicopter to Monaco.
We spent the day exploring the old town of Nice and soaking up the sun on the beach. Mind you it was very uncomfortable as there is no sand, only pebbles! We then went for lunch and I had the best pizza and ice cream I think I've ever had! We also went to what used to be a chateau (castle) on top of the hill. We got great views of the city which is absolutely beautiful.
That night we all jazzed up an headed to Monaco, the second smallest country. On the way we stopped on the side of the road for dinner and toasted a glass of champagne. So classy. We then went to The Palace, the home of the monarchy and Prince Albert. We then hit up the Monte Carlo Casino, famous for James Bond and his movie 'Casino Royal.' Lets just say there were lots of nice cars out the front and even Robert Deniro was seen.
Overall Nice was a great place to kick back, relax and have a bit of fun.
