Nice, France 16 September 2007

The drive to Nice was another longish drive – I think it took 4 and half hours including stops. There was the most incredible mountain range on our left.

Nice itself is under a lot of construction and was just a large, concrete and dirt city. We had 2 rooms, each with a kitchenette and I was very lucky to have Matt cook dinner one night.

On the afternoon we arrived Matt and Belinda took a trip on the Petite train whilst I sorted out the internet, had a rest and a swim in the incredibly cold roof-top pool. Most of the photos of Nice are courtesy of Belinda (thank you).

I have to include the pool rules - too funny!
