Arriving in Nice!

Bonjour, We have arrived in Nice! Its absolutely beautiful, I have fallen in love with all the beautiful little boutiques, fresh produce shops etc in old Nice can not wait to go explore each of them. We arrived yesterday afternoon to a warm 23 degrees it feels a lot warmer than our 23 degrees in MElbourne but I suppose that is the mediterranean climate....love it! The jet lag is awful poor Bella has been hit the worse even vomiting outside the supermarket...thank goodness Russ took her outside just before. She is however coping very well today. This morning we walked to the Chateau Nice climbing just over 200 steps to the top to see the amazing views. We then made our way down to the beach and the kids threw the rocks into the water...no golden sand here just big rocks to sit on. We then ventured to the market we fell in love with the beautiful fresh produce. we purchased some bread well we called it pizza but it was delicious Bread with cheese, tomato and mushrooms cooked onto the top and I think there was ham we ate it so quick we had to go back and buy more. The strawberries and cherries were also out of this world! We are just about to head to the beach for the afternoon. Au revoir!

Two sleeps to go.....

Its all starting to get very exciting, still lots of packing to do and a list the length of my arm to get through before Thursday.   We depart at 9:30pm on Thursday 16th June, 2011.
