Once again, Justine and I were running late this morning. I just don't understand how we can do it; we really try to get prepared for the mornings! Unfortunately, I forgot the hotel key (which was still in my pocket) so had to struggle up the hill to return it. Fortunately, I wasn't mugged on the way. As I walked back towards the bus, puffing and wheezing with this absolutely lovely cough, I saw Megs returning more room keys to the hotel. Should have just let her take ours!
It was another long day of driving today as we wandered back out of Barcelona and into France for the third time. We drove through the Spanish border before our first stop. There, the girls toilet was closed for cleaning, and with a bus ratio of about 40 to 10, it was a very interesting experience for all of us to go into the French men's toilet!
The next three hours flew by as Andrew, Tiffany, Justine and I chatted about our Australian homes. Tiffany will be an expert on Aussie culture by the time she gets back to South Africa! There was another stop, dimmed by the drizzle now haunting our drive, before we hopped back into the bus to visit the honeymoon capital, Nice.
Unfortunately for Justine, Johnny Depp is out of town so she had to entertain herself by having dinner with our little Contiki group. Then it was off for a quiet night with Amy, Andrew, Tiffany and Lee as we were taught how to play Casino poker and blackjack.
Getting ready for Monaco tomorrow night. I'm ready to rub shoulders with the rich and, fingers crossed, famous.
How're you girls liking the cold? :) Looks like about every day is planned to be eventful, which is great.
ReplyDeleteThat was very rude of Johnny Depp, not being there for Justine. I hope he comes back and apologises, and shares with you some rum. Or something. Because that's what Johnny Depp does... right?
It's not been that cold down south at the moment, but we're in Venice now and it's going to be freezing.
ReplyDeleteAnd yes, Johnny Depp owes us some rum.
