Day 15: Italy & Nice

I am digging this gig. I am currently at an internet cafe in Civitavecchia, Italy, soon to hit up a beach for a chill afternoon. My quartet plays tonight for a couple of hours, and other than what was hopefully my last training session this morning, I have the day off.

Two days ago, we stopped at Ville de France, the tiny port in between Nice and Monaco. I tried to coordinate with Amy and Stu to go to hang in Nice, but it didn't end up working out, so I went in by myself. I took a 10 minute bus ride over to Nice. My first priority was to find the main square and hotel where I hung out in 8th grade with the French Class trip from Potomac School. To my own general astonishment, I found it within 10 minutes of getting off the bus! I took a bunch of pictures so those will be coming soon.

Next on the list:
-have a crepe, preferably some kind of fruit or sucre
-find the ice cream place that shapes the ice cream into a flower using a spatula
-find a Fragonard store (the best perfume)
-get some lavender bags (or something else) to combat the "2 dudes in a tiny room" smell
-walk around explore

I had a crepe and walked up this fortress mountain thing (complete with a waterfall) and got kind of lost, but I made it back to the ship with plenty of time. It was an amazing day overall, and I hope that the pictures will tell more of the story. I didn't get to do everything, so I guess I have to go back...wooo!

And if anyone wants to mail anything to me, you need to send it to the Cruise's headquarters in Florida, and then they forward it to the ship. Apparently it takes 3-4 weeks, so mail it early!
