Yeah... travel days are just hard regardless of how little you do that day. We walked to the beach one last time after breakfast, finished packing, and made our way to the Juan les Pins train station. Took that train to Nice Ville and got on the high speed TGV to Paris. It was certainly fast, but since there's little to judge speed by it's hard to notice until you pass a train bound in the opposite direction approximately 3 feet from your train. A closing speed of almost 400mph is pretty impressive (and startling). But we made it. I had to conserve battery the best I could to ensure we could find the apartment, so no pictures of the incredible train station or the Seine or even Notre Dame which we walked right by. But, after we ate dinner, I did recognize where we were, so we walked down just a bit further:
Yep, it's quite a ways off, but a view of the Eiffel Tower seemed to perk everyone up. Tomorrow is get glasses and tickets and plan day. At dinner we talked about the vacation so far and the ratings were:
1. Rome
2. Venice
3. Nice/Antibes
But the consensus is that Paris may give Rome a run for the top spot. I can't wait to get started and see where we go.
Bonsoir!
