Italy and France

As soon as we arrived in Nice, France, we walked out of the airport to get a taxi and this is what we saw... all the taxi's are Mercedes or BMW's.



The beaches in Nice are very rocky so they rent out chairs on the beach. It'll cost you almost a $100 for the day. No one said France was cheap!


Darrick standing in the street


The beaches get packed. Don't look too close...the beaches are also topless!


View of the coastline


Fountain in front of our hotel

Darrick and I had a romantic dinner on the patio. We ordered our first bottle of wine together! Gotta have wine in France!

Darrick's region was #1 in the nation!

The hillside village of Eze. This picture looks fake to me, like a little village in a fairy tale.


The walk up to the top of Eze


We made it to the top

The walkway into the Prince's Palace

Up by the Palace again
Darrick got to drive a Ferrari on the actual rode that the Formula 1 Grand Prix is held
I was nervous with him driving and preferred he had both hands on the wheel


Darrick's regional dinner

These little cars were everywhere...I thought they were cute and had to get a picture.



A picture of our hotel that is built over the water.


Monte Carlo Casino. This is a very upper class casino. You have to wear a suit and tie and girls have to be dressed up to be allowed in. It is $20 just to go inside. Darrick went in with some friends, but I didn't care about going in.

We took a day trip into San Remo, Italy
Phil and Jessi shopping in the streets of Italy
The deli and the biggest block of cheese I have ever seen.

Jessi and I found out that too much wine can be a bad thing

My new love I found in Monaco...Nutella crepe's!! Nothing here compares to those crepe's...

Jordy might not look like it, but this was her favorite ride!
