Nice is... Aptly Named

Alright, lame jokes aside, Nice is really nice. I just got in today, and even though it's kind of cloudy and not too warm out, this city is still great. Miles of beach, cool boardwalk, and probably the cleanest and best organized city I've ever been in.

But enough about where I am, where have I been? Well, I made a stopover in Pisa, and to be honest, it has to be the most lenient city I've ever been to (not funny...?) Seriously though, the leaning tower war pretty cool, but you wouldn't want to spend more than a couple of hours there.

I spent a couple of days at Cinque Terres, which is this really spectacular National Park along the coast of northern Italy. Basically, you take a day and hike to all these small, quaint villages, which were totally isolated from the world (except by boat) until the 1960's. It's a really nice, relaxing place, with great views, great beaches and plenty of other hikes (which I did not do).

No pictures as of yet, but I'm sure that once I get to Spain, I'll find some place to upload some pixels. In the meantime, take care blogites.

Nice was were I witnessed a civilized altercation on a backstreet. It was between a speeding Vespa driver and a man walking with his wife and young child. The walker smacked the driver on the back for speeding as he whipped by. They both yelled a little, shrugged, and agreed to disagree. And that was it. End of altercation.

Yeah, well, while you're over in stupid Europe witnessing the awesome sights and attractions both natural and man-made, I cleaned my ROOM this weekend. Yeah, that's right, now who's having more fun? Me and my clean-for-the-first-time-in-longer-than-I-care-to-admit room? MayHAPS, sir!

Also, my word code for the privilege of posting this comment is ajuuunus, which is kind of like anus. Yes sir, having the time of my life over here!

Haha, I could see that kind of disagreement happening here, it's really a pretty chill place. And as for your room, Jeremy, I'm sure cleaning was a blast!
