We arrived in the afternoon and by the time we wrangled our way upstairs (to the best accommodation we’ve had yet) we headed out for dinner. Dinner was awesome and at a restaurant ;)
Most people headed out to a bar afterward but I was determined to recover from the previous night (Barcelona).
Woke up the next morning feeling happier than I can remember (amazing what a good long sleep can do).
Nice is all beach - pebbled beach (very pretty with its aqua waters). Took it easy today. Had Chinese for lunch, went for a run and dipped my toes in the ICY waters. Pebble beach = pain (wear shoes!)
We all got dolled up tonight for a night in Monaco and its casinos. The views are stunning and are strictly for the rich and famous. It’s apparently $40,000 per square meter of land – yikes! Didn’t enjoy it as much as I’d thought. ‘Everyone’ pervs on you and there was a 12yr old (looking) girl with a baby and an old man for a husband.
I got ‘bustled’ by a group of hot young (but drunk and scary) French guys. Nothing dangerous they just group hugged me as I tried to walk past.
Went into the Grand Casino to use the loo and to say we’d been there but avoiding the entry fee. Got rained on, ruining our efforts to look hot.
We got kicked out of a bar restaurant because we’d already had dinner and just wanted a bottle of wine (some of the other girls had ordered food though). After closing his little black order book and saying: “No, sorry.” We get up to leave and he creates this scene saying: “So you don’t want the wine now?”
We left and with a snotty huff and flick of my hair I snatched up the complimentary piece of bread. After going to a free-entry casino, we had an expensive glass of wine and got ogled by all of the rich old men. We looked very ‘gold-digger’ ;)
In my attempt to snatch up anything free, I reached for what I ‘thought’ was a little cube lolly. Upon shoving the entire ‘lolly’ in my mouth and chewing, I discover that it is in fact – a cube of individually wrapped; raw sugar.
