What are you doing today? And where are you? ...

... Our trip party is today here - 

Monaco was stunning

We saw plenty and have walked all over. There are lots of achy feet and the children have been in bed for ages. 
Today we've seen yachts, amphitheatres, cliffs, vineyards, formula 1 track, fast cars, expensive cars, fish, train stations, the beach and much more besides.
 The evening finished with a pizza picnic on the beach! 

Monaco

Well we've made it and have started taking photos of cars, road and designer handbags! We are bound to upload some photos later.

Heatwave

We are aware of the heatwave which is currently moving around France. We are enduring that students have LOTS of fluid AND that, on occasion, we have "water only" points in the day, to secure hydration. 

End of a long day exploring

We've explored Nice on foot today. We've seen the Promenade des Anglais, the Place du Masséna and the most amazing water fountains(!) - there were a lot children in wet clothes (not all of them though!) - see the picture below!



We have enjoyed time at the beach, had a yummy lunch in a restaurant and we have had a huge picnic on the beach. 

Today we have walked about 10 miles around the area. 

It is time for us to begin getting our brains for Monaco tomorrow 🚝

Stocking up ...

We are all just stocking up on lots and lots of water; the are a lot of greasy hands following suncream application and we are just gathering to head further towards the town and then to start properly exploring.

On est arrivés!

We have landed and are all through passport control. Just putting some sunscreen in before we all head out into the "fresh air" which is incredibly hot 😀

All aboard

Well we are on the plane! All boarded and through waiting to go. We will update you in France. 😀

It's finally here :-)

We are finally waking up on the morning of our travel to Nice.  The weather outside, ,here in England, is not so good, but we will be updating on all aspects of our time away via this blog.  Keep looking and, don't forget, if you have a google sign in, please do leave comments - we love to get them!
