Nice, FRANCE!

Hi everyone! Today was such a relaxing day, and it will probably be our last until we get back home. All we did was hang out on la Cote d'Azur in the touristy but lovely Nice, France. At first we weren't too sure about coming here because the beaches are ROCKY instead of sandy. We took Daniel's word on coming here and boy am I so glad we did, Nice is the ultimate Medeterranian/Provencale spot with really delicous food; its llike France and Italy had a food baby.
This morning we checked out of our hostel and headed to the local market to buy some wholesale breakfast. We got four pains au chocolats and four croissants for four euro. After, we headed to the beach to spend the day in the sun and eat our breakfast. The view on the beach was gorgeous! The water was a very vibrant light blue with a deep dark blue color in the distance. The rocks really weren't bad because they are very small and smooth. The water was so cold, but we all ended up going for a nice swim. We just layed on the beach and popped in the water whenever we needed, it was so refreshing!
For lunch we went to another café and we all ordered pizza AGAIN!:-) I orded a pizza Provencale with olives, eggplant, peppers, basil, and lots of cheese, and the boys got a simple but delicous Pizza Magurite. As soon as we finished lunch we went to get some amazing icecream. I must say I am absolutely in love with Passion Fruit icecream so I get it every single chance I can. After we just headed back to the beach to enjoy the sun even more. Daniel and Tim got a little sunburt but hopefully it will turn to tan ...really soon! We decided to head to the Monoprix once again to try and buy dinner. I am very proud I bought a ggreat one for only two euro. Nice was so amazing. We are off to Paris in an hour and a half!
