Nice, France

Me just enjoi-ing the viewNice was nice. Pronounced nis. It looks like nice. LOL. Well for these two days, it was nothing but sun burn for me. I got sun burnt day 1 but not really bad. Day two was way mucho bad. I couldn't even wear a t-shirt without having pain. The first beach we walked to was pretty nice, we went down to the shore and laid our stuff down and instantly we noticed that there is nothing but rocks on this beach. It was painful trying to get from our spot to the water or back. There were lots of topless women. All old and ugly. One was like 80 with old really really dark tanned wrinkly breasts. GROSS. She must have gone out there like everyday of her life she was so dark. Our hostel was like a party hostel, probably almost all American. They were selling beer in almost all the slots of there coke machine. And there was maybe only a few cokes. All the rest was beer for €1. Everyone who was drinking was really loud and obnoxious. I can tell why people have so much fun doing stupid crap like that, acting stupid and being un-needingly loud. I just headed to bed early, like 9pm. Julian is better than all that too, so he followed. Besides all that , the 3rd day was our leaving day. So we checked out and waited for our two hour late train. My backpack hurt so bad. My light t-shirt was hurting my burn so an 80 lbs. back pack was killer.

Late,

Venice was also Day13&14

Due to the fact that me and Julian are trying to do the day by day, just guessing what we are going to do the next. Me and Julian had no way of getting out of Venice and still having a place to sleep. We didn't even have a place to sleep anyways. We tried to see if there were any trains. There were none. Partially due to the fact that the Trenitalia (The Italian Rail) was on strike. So me and Julian took a walk to find a hostel. We walked around for like an hour and then came across one, they were nice, and we were one of the first to know about the strike so we got in right away. Later that day, they were packed with people with the same problem. We got lucky. We walked around and saw what little we missed, and then.............
Nothing.
Well, I guess we got on the internet and made a phone call or two. It is expensive in this place. In London the price of Internet was £1. In the rest of Europe it seemed to be about €3, but here in Venice.... €8 per hour.

The second day we did basically about the same, but this time we got ourselves a train for 10pm and we did the over nighter. We will arrive at like 9-10am in a place called Nice.

Venice was Day12

Venice.......Venice, is just Venice. It's exactly what you expect out of it. Water, Gondola's and their gondoliers, also those weird masks I have no idea what they're called. It's a place to be romantic in. Riding the boats down the small water ways and just enjoi-ing the Italian atmostphere. Mark got us the hotel, which is really nice. We have a bathroom and sink all to ourselves for the first time since we left. And a single, but big comfortable bed to stay on. Well, big thanks to Mark.
