Saturday we slept in! The hostel had AC, so we were in paradise. We left for a little town I had heard about called Eze. I didn't know a lot about it, just had a recommendation from my friend. This little town is by far my favorite place in Europe. It was the most sincere, adorable, BEAUTIFUL french town. The old fortress town is so cute, with amazing scenic views and little shops around every corner. Best part: the train was 15 minutes and cost us 3 euros roundtrip! We first went to a perfumery called Grabinard. The french riviera is famous for its perfumeries, so we went through the perfumery museum and factory. I even bought some as a special treat for myself-- surpassingly, it was cheaper than normal perfume in the states!
We also went to the exotic gardens, which is by far the most scenic view I have seen out of all of my trips. The garden was so cool, especially cause I have a special love for cactus! I loved it!
Later we took the train one more stop to Monte Carlo, Monaco. We went by the famous casino, saw yachts, yachts and more yachts. We hiked up a ways to the palace, but it was closed because some Monaco princess was getting married. The city was beautiful and the colors of all the buildings were so colorful. Suprisinly, its also where I found the cheapest food. This was quite a shock considering this is where the top 1% richest people in the world spend their vacation.
