France to Italy!

Well I am currently in Florence right now. We got here at about 5:30 this evening and we're out in the heart of Florence at the moment, we were supposed to be at a karaoke bar but me and some girls left because it was ridiculously crowded and noisy and just not fun at all, so we're here at an internet cafe instead! The ride from France to Italy wasn't too bad, I tried to sleep through most of it, but it didn't quite work.

Anyways, in the few days before we left France we went from Ville Franchee to Antibes and got to stop at Baune and Lyon on the way :) Lyon was kind of neat to see, and Baune was pretty fricken cute! Um, once we got to Antibes we went to a bowling alley which was kind of funny, that's really the only thing to do there! But it was good fun!

We got to go and see Monacco as well as the Montecarlo casino which was quite the sight but even Monaco and Montecarlo just themselves are awesome to see! Lots of nice cars :P Also we got to see the palace of the royal family that has been ruling the country for 700ish years, which is cool, amazing view from the top!

Day after that we went to see Nice, so we took the train in and did lots of shopping and we saw the chateau that's there and that was a really great view from the top, had ourselves some lovely French food :) and then we went over to the beach which sadly was rock, and went for a swim in the mediteranian sea and YES everyone, I did in fact go topless for a little bit, maybe like 10 mins, not even, hah but at least I can say that it's something I've done!! It was lots of fun that day, the only shitty bit was standing on the train platform for a half hour :( but oh well, that's part of the adventure, anyways I'm quickly running out of time so I best hop off right about now, I get to spend the day in Florence tmo and then it's off to Rome, the Eternal City, can't wait!!!!

Cheers!
