in nice
Just writing from the Villa St. Exupery Gardens (#1 hostel in France!) where there are tons of free computers and it is hoppin’. This trip has been amazing, overwhelming, and such an adventure. But it’s only half over! After two nights here, we’ll be moving on to Italy!
Tres bon.
The Cote d’Azur is as beautiful as one could imagine. Today we walked along the pebble beach and saw the sun set. Then we found the building where the Fitzgeralds lived for three years, and Tender is the Night was mostly written.
I keep having flashbacks to when I was sixteen and in a production of The Boy Friend. All that talk about the French Riviera, and now I’m here!
