A couple of mojitos in Nice

Yesterday may have been the greatest day of our trip so far. For one thing, Monaco is the craziest little country I have ever seen! no bigger than some of the cities we've seen, but built entirely on these crazy mountains facing a crystal blue bay!

We hit up the Jacques Cousteau Oceanography museum/aquarium which was as awesome as I'd hoped, lost 5euros on a slot machine at the Monte Carlo Casino (which, if you want to see anything past the slot machine, you need to pay a 10euro cover...needless to say the slot machines are all we saw) and snuck into a ridiculously ritsy hotel's swimming pool area. Unfortunately we didn't have our bathing suits so we couldn't swim, but we spent a solid 20 minutes staring out the window at the Marina and talking about how small all the yachts were compared to our familie's yachts!


Then we walked around the Bay where a carnival with rides, fun houses and cotton candy entertained us for a while. I injured my ankle a little in the Fun House but the 3 mojitos we drank at a little cuban restaurant down the street from our hotel had me back in shape again in no time!

This video was taken immediately after the fun house decided to blow a ridiculous gust of wind up my skirt as i was exiting onto the street, forcing me to run over a trick floor which was very wobbly and hurt my ankle...
