It's now been about a week since we arrived in nice! We've had lots of fun exploring the city and eating... lots. It's amazing how great the food is almost anywhere you go and how gorgeous the sights are along the coast and even in town.
At the beginning of the week we attempted to go to Monaco and check out the beautiful cars and people. After waiting for the bus for an hour, we lost hope of making it that day and caught the bus one town over. All was not lost because we managed to find large boats, yummy pizza and a blue coast!
Walking through town...
Seafood pizza... Delish.
Even with a baby octopus on top. (I couldn't eat it)
Mussels and frites (French fries). Never would have guessed but best combo evs!!
Being so close to the sea, we walked down to the beach and spent some time by the water. Nice is known for it's coast of rocks, not sand. OUCH.
Our first day we laid on the rocks while eying up the cushioned chairs further down the coast at a beach restaurant type place. Two days later when we decided to hit up the beach, this is where we went! Check the cushioned chairs in the background.
The next day we took the ferry to a nearby island, Saint-Tropez. Saint-Tropez is known for it's celebrity visitors and pricey shops (wish I had taken a picture of these).
Will and me on the ferry!
Once we arrived in Saint-Tropez, we stumbled across this tree covered restaurant. We were nervous the food may not be good since it was empty, however, 20 minutes later it was packed. Good timing!
Along the dock we stopped by a restaurant to check out some overpriced boats and drinks. Definitely an experience.
Leaving the island we were a little late catching the ferry and were stuck in seats that get splashed with water. Check out our soaked shirts!
Just happy to be in France!
Bonsoir!
