Goodbye Sea

Hello all! While we miss you terribly, we might miss the French Riviera even more! As I speak, we're on a train headed for Lyon, France. Yesterday in Antibes was so relaxing. We laid on a small beach (with sand!) outside the ancient walled city of Antibes. As always, we didn't want to put on sunscreen, so we got crazy sunburns. Hunter even put on his shirt while I continued to roast. While in Antibes, we also explored Fort Caree, which was really old and awesome. Unfortunately, our tour guide only spoke French. Most historic sites here only have explanations in French, which stinks. We came home early to pack and figure out our train situation. We discovered that Nimes just wasn't working out. Neither was Geneva. For the sake of our sanity, we settled for a ride to Lyon. We did our laundry by hand and paid 3 euros for a dryer that didn't even work. Then we got Indian food at a little restaraunt. We thought we could share, but the portion was tiny. It was so good, but hardly filling. Feeling poor, we decided to just sleep it off. This mroning we took an early train to Eze, a Medieval city we'd read about. The train dropped us in a beautiful coastal city. Hunter was excited when we found a sign saying "Eze 1hour." I wasn't so enthused. We made the trek anyway and found ourselves on a strenuous path going up a huge mountain. It soon became very tropical and we even found an old house and waterfall. Finally we reached Eze. It sat on top of a hill and was so awesome!! It looked almost like a movie set. It was filled with shops, restaraunts, and hotels that probably cost 1,000 dollars per night. It was an awesome day. We ate our sack lunch and explored. Now we're on the train writing postcards, stuffed from our grocery store finds.
