Nice (as in France) beaches!

And for the finale..the beaches of the French Riviera in Nice....here's the deal, if you want great beaches don't come here!! I was told they were made up of "very small rocks" :), and "they" weren't kidding!!! I guess if this is all you have, you use it. That is why Monaco ships in their sand... so it will appeal to the rich and famous! Yeeeaaahhh..try fitting these in a bottle!!!

The last night in Europe we ate at a wonderful cafe in Nice, and we ran into the same two young ladies we met on the bus...in fact they were on the same bus home (back to Nice) as well. They were sitting at the cafe, and as we were standing there checking out the menu, we heard our names! It took us a moment to figure out what was going on, as one rarely hears their name called while travelling in Europe! So we joined them for dinner and sat and talked late into the night. We ended up walking them back to their hostel to make sure they got there safe. It was really wild to run into them yet again, it was definitely one of those ordained moments.

The cafe had ratatouille on the menu, and of course David had to order it even if to just tell our girls we had it. (Like the movie...Ratatouille....get it?) It wasn't horrible, it was just a bunch of vegetables in a beefy sauce...David liked it a lot, but I hated the texture.

Here is the train station where we boarded the train that took us to the airport....as much as I absolutely love to travel, by this time we really were missing our kids and were ready to go home! We'll be back...Europe was so much more accessible than I imagined....we are excited to be able to come back with our kids someday...maybe once they can walk further than a half mile without complaining!!!! :)
