Days 13 & 14: Nice with friends!

Met my roommates last night and we went out food and a lot of drinks n dancing! We decided on hiring a boat the next day, little luck in getting a boat hook-up from random strangers!

Left-to-right: Ramzi, me, Vlada, Liza and Linus

We were out til about 05:30 argh!

Let’s get a boat

In the morning, off for a ramble down to the marina–we were in luck, one small 5 person boat available ?. I volunteered to be captain, and here’s me without my captains hat.

The good ship Grace

We sailed around to Villefranche-sur-Mer, dropped anchor and swam in the Mediterranean sea; drinking wine & champagne, having a blast.

After a truly awesome day at sea, another night of food n mental drinks! Lukas and his bud Colin met up at with us.

Luke from the hostel came along too, a fellow North-Eastern lad from the UK ?

Trip to Eze & Hiking

This morning the wonderful Liza scooped us up another member of the group, Bec from Australia 🙂

Also a slightly sad morning because Vlada is leaving us to go to her next destination!

The lot of us, plus Bec & Luke, walked over to Castle Hill. We were most of us pretty knackered so we took the lift up to the top and then walked down.

Lush waterfall!

Bec volunteered to be navigator for the next party of the day, a trip to Menti or Eze. We ended up in Eze, mini bus to the very top then a long walk down to The village.

The hike down.

The restaurant near the top was great, I had swordfish for the first time and it was delicious.

We hiked a short way to to the bottom along the Nietzche trail; some of the crew were in flip-flops but at all made it in one piece haha! Then we headed down to the beach for a swim in the sea before we got the train back to Nice.

And yeah, no surprise, food and big drinks around town again. Lukas met up with us with a large crowd of (mostly) girls he met swimming and we partied the night away, as usual ?
