DAY 5 EDINBURGH / MONACO

Goodbye Scotland!! We are going to South of France today!! This morning we took a flight from Edinburgh to Nice. It was only 2 hours more to Nice and we were so excited for going there!!

There were a group of French secondary school students in the same flight with us. We tried to talk with them in French and then we started to talk on the flight. They went to Scotland for school trip!! Wow!! How come I never had such school trip?? Those students were friendly, cute and curious. I guess they were surprised that we could speak a little bit French.

Nice Airport is pretty small. We bought bus tickets from Nice Airport to Monte Carlo. Thanks for Kelly!! I could buy a student ticket :D It costed EUR 12.50, pretty expensive tho.

The weather in Nice Monaco wasn't so good. It was a bit foggy and cloudy. I could see some sun but it wasn't what I expected. I thought I could see a beautiful blue sky.

We dropped off our luggages at Kelly's friend's home and then we went out and walked around. Monaco is the world smallest French speaking country. The Formula One was held just a week before we were there. We could still see the F1 tracks.

Kelly's friend finished work at around 4.30pm and then he drove us to a ancient village - Èze. This small medieval village is famous for its beauty and charm.

Since it was quite foggy when we were at the top of the hill, we had to wait for a while until the clouds and fog was blew away.

This village is really so beautiful and the old buildings impressed me a lot!! I felt like I was back into the middle age. What a lovely village!!

We were quite lucky that we could see the beautiful sunset and it was fantastic!! I love this little village!!

We went back to Monte Carlo in the evening and took a look on the famous casino. We didn't get in coz people dressed up beautiful there. Most of them were rich coz there were a lot of nice luxury cars such as Porsche, Ferrari...

We then had a nice dinner in a Italian restaurant. The food was delicious but it wasn't expensive. Eating dinner next to the Mediterranean Sea was so wonderful!!!
