We found our Guest House (Nice Home Sweet Home) quite easily and were greeted by Filip (the husband to the boss of the house: Genevieve). He gave us a map, explained where the nearest supermarket is, and we were off to explore Nice and get some supper (since we missed lunch). After searching for a while, we realised that either Filip’s English or his direction is not that good, since we could not find the supermarket. We rather made our way towards the nearest beach (a 10 minute walk from our guesthouse) and with beach I mean pebble beach, not sand. From here we walked down a number of vibrant streets and bought a baguette for supper. We went back to the beach to eat and afterwards watched an artist with spray paint (similar to the ones we saw in La Rambla) do his thing. Finally we made our way back to the guesthouse for a good nights sleep.

There was a lot of Afrikaans...

Fortunately the closest Metro to the Vatican was also on our Metro line and we were “there” at about 8:55. We then stood in the longest...

	48. Aida and the catacombs Jul 16 2010, 02:46 PMRome, Italy9 photos Our first mission for the day (besides the getting to Rome part) was to see the catacombs and the second to watch Aida at the Baths of Caracalla. On our way to the bus station we saw our first accident in Italy (really a surprising first considering the way they drive). I heard a hard sound and...
