Default Ever been to Nice?

So it looks like I'm going to be headed over to France in May. It's for a work thing, but I should have a little time to putz around. Ever been to Nice? What's... nice there? I'll be right downtown.

Ohhh, it's beautiful there! So many castles and churches to see. Great architecture and plus, it's right on the coastline. Oh, I remember there is a colosseum there called Stade Charles-Ehrmann, so gorgeous!It's used as a football, or I guess a soccer stadium. I'll consult my little travel journal and give you more specific places to look at in a bit...

I want to say that Monte Carlo is a short train-ride away. Go and gamble in the casino there.

As for Nice, check out the rock beach, and look out for the doggy poo!

Yeah, Nice is pretty much a beach town. I hear there are nicer, less rocky beaches elsewhere, but Nice is fine. Just bring some shoes or sandals you don't mind swimming in. It's not too comfy to walk barefoot into the ocean.

Monte Carlo is neat to see. It's all Ferraris and princes and shit. Bring a jacket if you wanna go into the nicer areas of the Casino.

Have fun!

Also, if you're not 21, don't try to get into the casino. We managed to sneak into the less fancy one, but the super nice one turned us away like day-old caviar.
