The day started with an ordinary breakfast of toast, rolls, etc. After checking out of the hotel we headed to Pisa, which was about one and a half hours away. In Pisa we saw the Leaning Tower, the Baptistery, and the Cathedral. There was a mass for the Italian mafia in the Cathedral, so we couldn't take any pictures. We then had a couple of hours to shop. The shopping was better here then it was in Florence. I bought a leaning mug, a plaque of Pisa, and a thimble for my grandmother. For lunch we stopped at an Autogrille. I had pasta, lasagna, and chocolate pudding with pineapple. Then it was about four hours to Nice. There were countless tunnels along the way. After arriving in Nice we went straight to the chocolate factory. We learned how different kinds of chocolate and candy are made. The chocolate and candy that are made in the factory are really good. After checking into the hotel we walked to Le Chantilly for dinner. We had egg salad for the first course. Veal and french fries made up the second course. We had a really good chocolate pie for the third course. After dinner we stopped by the beach. The beach is very rocky and not fun to walk on. We then went to a discotheque called the Pam Pam and stayed for about 30 minutes. We headed for another but got turned away because there was a private party. We almost got turned away from a British pub, called Wayne's, with live music but some how we got in. We stayed until closing, 15 minutes later. This pub was crowded and smoky, and not to mention hot. We might have better luck with the clubs tomorrow though.
