Beach Bums

Greetings family and friends!

We have arrived in Nice(two nights ago) and are loving the beach! It is a little colder than Amber would have liked but I think it is glorious!!! We arrived in the middle of the night, struggled to find a cheap hotel, and paid through the nose for one...the alternative was to stay in the open train station on the marble seats with the police and guard dogs sniffing us all night...no thanks! We had a beautiful if TINY hotel room, complete with air conditioning and our own shower. Now we have tranferred to a cheap 1 star hotel with more room, but no air conditioning, shared shower and toilet. It will do though as we can just go to the beach in about 15 minutes walk.

The beach is filled with topless sunbathers...some who have something to show...some who should really cover it up...ha ha. We were covering it up! I swam a little, Amber preferred to sunbathe and got a lovely tan/sunburn.We are off to see some of the sights today before heading down to the beach.

Hopefully will be on a nighttrain to Paris tomorrow night, and will probably only stay just the one night as the hostels are a little more pricey. From Paris the plan is to visit Cologne, then Amsterdam, then Brussels...no plans are engraved in stone, however, so you could hear from us in any part of Europe.

Amber is dying to check her e-mail and I have a couple of other things to take care of here, so will sign off..

ciao, from Nice, France

Jude and Amber
