We are in Nice!

We just wanted to let everyone know that we made it into Nice last night. It was definitely a challenge getting here. We left our Barcelona hostel early in the morning to catch our train, and while we were at the train station, Savannah threw her back out when trying to pick up her massive backpack. So, for the rest of the day, Savannah had really horrible back pain and I had to carry both of our backpacks. Mine on my back and hers on my stomach. But, after traveling all day, we made it to our hostel and it is amazing. It is the Villa Saint Exupery, you can look it up. When we were booking our hostel room we chose the 11 bed dorm because it was cheapest and the double rooms were going to be over 100 euros a person, but when we checked in we were so excited to find out that we had been upgraded to a double room and we still get to pay our 27 euros a night!! So, last night we took it easy resting in our room and Savannah could finally lay down. It is such a nice hostel, they offer different trips like surfing, wake boarding, sailing, canyoning, and more for people staying there and they have a bar with 1 euro drinks and the best breakfast we have had so far in a hostel. Today we will try to find a sand beach nearby since Nice is all rocks and we can just chill out, which is exactly what we want to do!

Happy 4th of July!!! We miss everyone and look forward to seeing everyone in 11 days!!
