Days 5 - 10



Bonjour everyone

Man you would think touristy places like europe would have good internet places but they are very few and far between!!! So i could write a novel about what we have been up to the last week but ill keep it short and let the photos do the writing for me!!!
We started Contiki and have so far been to Paris, Spain, Nice and tonight is dinner at Monaco before heading to Italy tomorrow with Florence being first call. No place has disappointed us yet - hotels arent anything special but we go to bed anytime after midnight and up again at 6am so yes tired and sleepy is our key word at the moment!!!!
But Spain was pretty cool and so different to Paris! The food everwhere has been awesome so been enjoying the foods and then walking miles all day to burn it off so all good!!! Bought a decent leather jacket in Spain with the promise to scott that i will wear it when i get back!!!
The trip to Spain from Paris took about 10 hours and on arrivial we had to catch 2 trains to get to the centre of town with the promise from our guide thats its worth it- and for all the hassle at 10pm he took us to the most amazing water feature we will ever see. For 15mins there is a fountain with music and its so lovely. Check out the photos and hopefully it will give you an idea of how awesome it looks!!
So we are having a good time and the people on tour are nice. We arent the oldest either much to Scotts delight! There are 4 of us couples, about 5 guys and then the rest are chicks - and minus about 5 americans, and 1 new zealander - we are all aussie bogans so its pretty funny!
anyway thats all for now - hope everyone is well and enjoying the cold weather today while i will now head for a private beach on the mediterrean sea with a waiter to serve me cocktails hehe now dont get too jealous and enjoy work!!!!!!
