Nice – Our Trips Around The World

戛纳 A trip to Cannes

今天去戛纳转一圈，同样有很方便的火车直达，车程大概45分钟，我俩的车票一共13欧元。戛纳是法国重要的会议和展览中心，尤其因为那个著名的戛纳电影节而闻名，也因此戛纳对于中国人来说比较熟悉。感觉戛纳和其他法式小镇没有什么区别，有老城区的小巷，有海湾，有教堂，有博物馆，有层出不穷的饭店，酒吧，商铺，等等，唯一让它闻名于世的应该就是戛纳电影节了。

Today, we went to Cannes for a brief visit taking a very convenient direct train. The journey took about 45 minutes and costs 13 euros. Cannes is an important conference and exhibition center in France, especially famous for the Cannes Film Festival, so of course Cannes is very familiar to Chinese people.

尼斯放松的一天 A Relaxing Day in Nice

今天的主要任务是洗衣服，上午11点多才出门去附近的一个自助洗衣店。有三个能洗不同数量衣服级别的洗衣机，我俩用的是20公斤的，费用是11.9欧元，烘干是10分钟1欧元。洗衣服加烘干用了75分钟，在盎格鲁海滨大道坐着看海潮等衣服。回到洗衣店去衣服，准备把洗好的衣服装回到背包里时，发现PJG的唯一一条长裤成了漏网之鱼！没洗它！气死我了，当时拿出衣服的时候把它给漏下了，还得单独再洗这条裤子！找了附近的越南饭店，饭店的旁边就是另一家洗衣店，决定在那里一边洗衣服，一边吃午饭。

Our main task today is to do the laundry, so we went out to a nearby laundromat just after 10am. There are three washing machines that can wash different quantities of clothes, we used the 20kg, the cost is 11.9 euros, and the drying is 1 euro per 10 minutes.

滨海自由城 Villefranche-sur-Mer

4月25日，星期日 April 25th, Sunday

离开了摩纳哥，坐火车来到了海滨自由城，坐落在摩纳哥和尼斯之间，坐火车只有4站地。滨海自由城的天然海湾是地中海所有港口之中最深的海港，可供各种船只包括大型船只安全停泊。这里也有尼斯的五颜六色的建筑，蔚蓝的地中海，但是又比尼斯安静了一些。小镇很小，逛了一会儿我俩决定不坐火车，步行回尼斯, 一共用时1个半小时左右，开始的一段时爬山，一共有大概四百多个阶梯，让我俩回想起了在意大利阿马尔菲海岸那次的攀山。但是今天的天气要凉快很多，看不到某人大汗淋漓的场景啦，哈哈。

After leaving Monaco, we took the train to Villefranche Sur-Mer, which is located between Monaco and Nice. It was four stops from Monaco. The natural bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer is the deepest of all the ports in the Mediterranean, where all kinds of ships, including large ones, can be safely moored. Although we never saw any really large ships.

短暂观光摩纳哥国 A Trip to Monaco

某人说有几个旅游小记太长了，所以今天会分成两个写。

Someone complained that the blogs are too long, so I will write today’s in two parts.

在尼斯的第一个整天 Nice, First Full Day

早上一直在下雨，直到10点多雨突然就停了，然后就是阳光明媚，碧蓝的蓝天。先沿着盎格鲁街漫步了一个小时，这条街道是一条沿着地中海蔚蓝海岸的著名的海滨步行道。这里的浪潮很高，海浪拍打岸边石头的声音格外沸反盈天。这条街本来是英国人建的，1860年，尼斯才被并入法国。

It had been raining all morning until at 10am when the rain suddenly stopped, replaced by a sunny blue sky. We took a long stroll along the Promenade des Anglais, Nice’s famous seaside promenade on the Mediterranean Riviera. The tide was high here, and the sound of the waves dragging the rocks back into the sea is very alluring.

去法国尼斯 Heading to Nice, France

今天要去下一个目的地法国尼斯，下午2点50的易捷航空的飞机，早上11点多从酒店结账，兰布拉大道附近给PJG买了一个新帽子，昨晚吃晚饭不知道怎么他的帽子丢了。12点多坐巴士直达机场。

Today we are going to our next destination, Nice, France. Our easyJet flight is at 2:50 pm so we checked-out of the hotel at 11 am. I bought a new hat for PJG near Las Ramblas. Why? Because somehow at dinner last night, the hat went missing!
