Day Two of France

By: Fiona Heilman

I apologize for not updating the blog yesterday. There was wifi difficulties in the hotel we are staying at. It's been a great past two days in France. It has definitely been my favorite part of the trip so far because the views are absolutely breathtaking.

Day Two:

This was an AMAZING day. We traveled to St. Paul de Vence after spending the night in Avignon. The views were so gorgeous because it was located on a big hill overlooking other cities in France. 





The restaurant some of us ate at had a green toilet seat & yes...that is pink toilet paper.


The beach in Cannes was SPECTACULAR! We had never seen the ocean this blue and beautiful.


How breathtaking is this water?!

After St. Paul de Vence, we traveled to the Cannes Film Festival. This was definitely the best part of the day! It was so busy and crowded in the little city of Cannes. People were everywhere getting ready for the celebrities to walk on the red carpet stairs. Big name stores such as Chanel, Rolex, and Gucci lined the main strip. Celebrities such as Bruce Willis, Bill Murray, and Eva Longoria were there.
We then traveled to Nice, France, checked into our hotel, and then we all went to a pizza place Dr. Barber raved about. She said it had the best pizza in the world so of course we all had to try it. We all agreed it was the best pizza we had ever had!


That pretty much sums up our second day in France!

Au revoir!
