Beaches

The beaches are some of the things I love best about being here. Basically, I love any beach, as long as it's got sunshine and clean water. And the warmer the water/softer the sand, the better. Unfortunately, the water at the beaches here is pretty cold, but they've still got their strong points. I've been to the beaches at Cannes, Monte Carlo, Villefranche, and of course Nice and they've all been pretty good. Nice is the only one without sand, so it's not as good for napping at, but you also don't get sand up your swim suit. I had sand in my swim suit when we left the beach at Monte Carlo and I paid dearly for it. Nice is also the closest. But Villefranche isn't very far away at all. Like 5 minutes on the train. That one is probly my favorite. It has the best view. I'd try to describe it, but you need a picture to do it justice. Actually, you really just gotta see it in real life to do it justice. Monte Carlo is further away, and you have to walk a long ways after you get off the train, but you get to see tons of cool cars along the way. Bugatti's, Bentley's, Ferrari's, Lambo's, Rolls Royce's, you name it. The water is also super clear, and you can see all the fish swimming around. It's also the only one with a dock. I like having a dock cuz that way you can just jump right in and it's easier to get in the water that way when it's kinda cold. The water is probly the dirtiest there tho. Not super bad, but just like crap floating around near the dock and the shoreline. Cannes was the most crowded, but that mighta been because we went during the film festival. But they also had people walking around selling cold drinks, so that was cool. I've still got a few more beaches that I gotta get to, but as far as I can tell, they're all good. Shelby's got all the pics tho, so you'll either have to ask her or Google if you wanna see what the beaches look like.
