hello there all.
the story goes like this. early in the morning 4am me and jules drag ourselves outta the bed and started preparing. FOR THE TRIP TO NICE. (and monaco) We didnt sleep much. like 2 am, me and jules just fell asleep while talking nonsense lying on our back. we didnt plan to plan nor plan to allow karen to sleep. hahahaha she was to pei us until we go off. BUT she fell asleep too at ard 3am. (!!!!)

We had to wake up that early because the entire of france, has almost been paralysed by the worker union's strike for the second time in this 2 months. This time, it lasted longer and right now as i am typing this, it is still on the continue.
so we went to Gare Du Nord earl in the morn by 6am. and there was no train to go to Gare De Lyon where we should be at. (there are 2 train stations for such travel outta paris and we were supposed to go to the other one, Gare de Lyon)
@Gare Du Nord
NO entry, NO Trains. =(
YES policemen, NO trains still
dead.

and stuck, we are really stuck. took us 10 mins to decide to take cab (!!!!!) down to gare de lyon despite not knowing if there would be trains operating there as well. we just couldnt waste the tickets. and the travelling mood. so onyva!

voila! nous sont a gare de lyon!

c'est beau!


we missed our train at 7.50 am but due to the strike we can just board any train of the day (if any). and we hopped onto the 9.35am train.

au revoir paris! bonjour nice!
after 6 long hours, bienvenue!

nice is nice. hahahahaha. SO is juliteng!

into the hotel we go.
