Hotel Ambassador | 104 | ??? | 09:00 |
Today breakfast consisted of croissants, hard rolls, orange juice, and hot chocolate. We went to the Russian Church after breakfast. The church was small for its size and elegance, which led to boredom, for me, quickly. It resembled the big church in Moscow, however. We then headed to an overlook on the eastern part of Nice to see a beautiful view of the surrounding area. We kept going up higher and higher, we eventually reached another church and a nice garden. We saw some roman ruins of a coliseum and ruins of some other building. The coliseum was closed so we didn't get any pictures of the inside, but it was much smaller than the Colosseum in Rome. We went back to the hotel for two hours of free time. A few people went running while others went walking. A few people also went swimming, and for the most part they had fun. For lunch I had American style pizza and water. Our free time was up and we boarded the bus to St.-Paul-de-Vence. St.-Paul-de-Vence is a neat little town with rather narrow streets and plenty of shops. We went shopping for the most part. The town had some interesting shops and even had a museum. Three hours later we headed back to Nice for a quick dinner. I don't remember what was for dinner tonight. Two more hours of free time followed dinner so we could prepare for clubs. We didn't have the opportunity to go to the Pam Pam or Wayne's, the British Pub, so we decided to go to a Karaoke place near the hotel. We stayed three to four hours. In order to get in you had to buy a drink so. I had a beer. Most everyone sang to a song or two. Karaokeing got kind of boring after awhile and some left, but most stayed until the end, which was around 00:30.
