"20 years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw of the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sail. Explore. Dream. Discover." -- Mark Twain

Sainte Maxime, France (Part1)
DAY 1
SK 2795 to Nice. We landed at Nice, FranceAirport and we drove 2hrs to Sainte Maxime, France. It was really late. We just take out pizza from food chain and ate while driving. I know the place is really nice. Saint Maxine is along the cost of Nice, Marseilles and few minutes drive it is Sainte Tropez, haven for actors and rich people. I saw lights in the harbor and I saw yachts. When we got to our accommodation, I didn’t expect that I have my own apartment. My own bathroom, kitchen, dining room, living room. I cant explore the whole apartment because I am really tired. I just took the shower and sleep.
DAY 2
I set the alarm at 6am. I want to see the sunrise but because I was really tired. I decided to get up at 7pm. I really want to see what’s look outside. So when I get up I ran towards the door and opened it then I saw a stunning place. A beautiful place infornt of my door steps. This day was really hot. I tested it. I went out around 11am toexplore the place but unfortunately after 15 mins, I gave up. It was really hot! Considering that I am from Asia, I should bear any heat but this is too much for me. We decided to take our lunch in beach. I had tuna salad. Sadly, I cant take pictures in the restaurant because of the half naked and naked people. The beach is nice, the place is like Puerto Galera. The coastline where we drove is like going to Subic Bay and their town is like Boracay. So I didn’t miss Philippines that much. We stayed for 2 to 3 hours. Enjoying the sun and sand and talking about the peoples’ accessories in the beach. Some they have really nice swim suit and some they have something in their eyes while sun bathing and others just silicon. Then, we went home and took of some sands in our clothes and body and we went to the town and had our dinner. As I said their town is like Boracay, they have cozy restaurants and boutique. Farfar gave me white wine and It was really good. So good that I felt dizzy and felt that I am little drunk. I wanted to go back to that place to watch sunset but unfortunately, I felt dizzy. I ate onion tart, pasta carbonara and chocolate mousse. I really like Farfar and farmor, they wanted me to experiences everything.
DAY 3 At long last, i have internet connection. But instead of connecting my laptop and ipod, I decided to take a plunge in the pool for hours and after lunch i took a walk in the town. Along the way i saw a store and i cant resist to buy a clothes. Indeed shopping in France and then took a plunge again in the pool. And true unti unti ng bumabalik ang sumpa! i saw tan line! Then i ended my day watching sunset along the coast.
DAY 4 Morning rituals--plunge in the pool. The whole day i didnt go out. I felt that i took too much sun and my skin is getting darker. I still 3 days more here. Instead i took some pictures from my apartment and study. At night i watched fireworks along the coastline of Sainte Tropez while watching that i miss my family. They love watching fireworks too.
