We had to be up very early this morning to embark on our next adventure to the south of France! We had booked a carpool online so we weren't quite sure what to expect. Before our ride arrived we grabbed some fresh croissants for breakfast - we both agreed that they were the best croissants we have ever tasted, they were buttery and savory and they melted in our mouths. YUM. We thought that the car ride would be very quite because we didn't speak much French and our driver didn't speak much English, but we were very wrong. It's amazing how easily you can communicate with people when you're forced into the situation. I brushed up on my French and the driver wasn't as bad at English as he thought. He was a passionate Latin dancing teacher. Along the way we also picked up a young pastry chef and a student from Lyon. We all got along famously and the drive turned into a fun road trip with great new friends. Not to mention the scenery which was breathtaking the entire way. Endless fields of green with mountains and castles on hills. About 10 hours later, we finally arrived to beautiful Nice! Paradise.
