So, i got back from France about 2weeks ago now. I finaly loaded some of the pics onto my photobucket account. I kinda dont wanna sit around for a day loading all 600 of them on, so i figured i would show you guys some of my fav pics. So for my trip, my girl friend, sarah, and i flew into Paris, hopped on a train and headed to Nice, right beside Monaco. Took 6 and a half hours on train to get from Paris to Nice. The first day we were there, we were awake for 38 hours straight because of the stupid time change. So we got to Nice where we had to hike for 25 minutes with 50lb backpacks in 32 degree (celcius), 89 fahrenheit weather, uphill. Finaly got to our appartment we rented. Small, but nice. Any ways, we spent 11 days in Nice and the French Riveara and our friends who were backpacking through europe together showed up and stayed with us for about a week. Any ways, enjoy the pics.
![]() View from the beach at the end of our street looking east(towards Monaco) ![]() Looking West ![]() It was cool but weird, the Nice Airport is loacted at the end of the coast right on the water so every day you were on the beach, planes would be flying like 300 feet above you. Cool but weird. ![]() Pic of me, my gf, Jen (gfs life long friend), Stefan and Big Mike(guys i went to highschool with). ![]() Canadian Bacon. Stef was on the beach for 2 hours, no sunscreen and it was like 35 that day. Its been two weeks and the burn still isnt fully gone away. ![]() Mikey and Sarah. Mike decided to drink that entire bottel of wine to him self that night, after 3 pervious glasses and a bottel of beer. ![]() The aftermath... ![]() Hangin the laundry out to dry. We had some ghetto washer/dryer. To get every thing fully dry, the cycle took 2 and a half hours - 3 hours. ![]() ![]() ![]() The coast at night. ![]() home cooked dinner ![]() we had about 2 bottels of wine a night for dinner. This was only part of the collection. Also, wine, good wine...$5.50 a bottel ![]() ![]() Stef enjoying Coca-Cola Blak, a mix of Coke and Coffee flavour. Its actually really good. |

you lucky bastard!
i was in france last summer in LORIENT working with Radio-Canada at the Festival Interceltique de Lorient on the west coast. it was a real blast. i only saw Paris from the window of our shuttlebus between Charles de Gaulle airport and Orly airport. the French are really helpful when you need them if you are patient enough to explain exactly what your situation is. i wish i could post pics but (please no BS flags) i had a critical hard drive failure on the crap PC is was using and lost everything. it sucks 'cus its almost like i never went (except for the large deposit in my bank account for all the overtime and travel time i cashed in on). BTW - je t'emmerde colon d'Amérique mal étoffé !!! -------------------- ![]() |
