From this moment on

So our full free day in Nice quickly became a half day when we awoke at 11am... Oh shit -no one set an alarm. That was very silly of us. So we decided to make it a lazy day all round, we did some more shopping, had some lunch and went to a public laundromat to try and make a dent in our large piles of laundry. We wanted to go and check out the beach but we needed to be back in time to get ready for our big night out. WE WERE OFF TO MONACO! Also to the famous Monte Carlo Casino. We got dolled up to the nines and jumped on the Topdeck bus for our fun evening! Noddy took us up to a beautiful lookout over the French Riviera for a beautiful picnic dinner where we could take some pictures and enjoy the pure majesty of Nice. Only a short 20 minute drive to the country of Monaco - we approached the border and Noddy told us to get out our passports and open them to the face page. She said to put them up against the window and they would be scanned by border patrol... Of course none of us knew a...

After an early start in Barcelona, we are on the road again - destination? The French Riviera, where the rich and famous holiday and the people walk around in swimwear all day. It was a long day of driving with 4 stops along the way, a toilet stop, a lunch stop (micky d's) and then a stop at the famous Fragonard Perfumerie in Nice.  The Fragonard Perfumerie was very cool - and obviously smelled amazing, we had a tour guide show us through the perfumerie and explained the process of how essential oils are taken from flowers or fruits and made into some of the most amazing perfumes in the world. We were able to smell some exquisite scents and buy some in the gift shop.  Then onto our hotel in Nice - yes, this time we actually got to stay in a hotel not a hostel (no bunk beds), but the quality was not that much better. Starting to miss my bed haha! We checked in, got ourselves changed for a big night - but with one warning from Noddie: don't get too dressed up or put to much make...
