James Bond and the massive yachts of Monaco

I met up with some canadians in cinqueterre and we headed towards nice. I was going to meet damo there the next day so i hung out wiht the canadians for the trip and we stayed in a hostel together, mik and j were really good guys and we had a good time together. When damo didnt arrive we decided to day trip it to monaco, it was definately a money city, with massive Yachts, expensive cars, hot young women with old men. It was a bit poxy though with a lot of old 70s style buildings etc. but i loved the yachts. ive decided that im going to own one!!!! (yeah yeah i hear you say…. well its a nice dream!!). That night it was raining, which it did most of the time i was in nice, so we started playing drinking games at mik and js hostel. We started with 5 people and in the end pretty much the entire 30 or so people in the hostel were playing, and we were all rather hammered!!!! Next day damo arrived and the canadians left, so damo and i wandered around nice having a good look around, it wasnt a very busy time of year although you could imagine that it would be much more fun in high season. The beach wasnt all that much, it had rather large grey stones instead of sand. The next day we went to monaco and we went into the casino. It was pretty much dead empty, perhaps only 30 people in there. I have to say it was a stunning casino, very lavishly decorated and you could imagine that it too would be awesome fun had there been more people around. We walked around the marina again and a lot of the yachts were having maintenance done on them. Seemed like there were a lot of Australians as crew memebers on the yachts although none of them let us on :( One guy had a remote control helicopter and he was trying to show off in front of the crew girls only he slammed it into a kayak and broke one of the rotors, although he didnt seem to care!!! We eneded up watching the movie wimbeldon, i have to say it was a pretty good movie and Kirsten Dunst is looking mighty fine. Same cant be said for me, im packing the kilos on, yep thats right im turning into a fatty!!!! hehehehe must have something to do with the 8+ meals i have a day!!! Anyway damo left the next day and i went to milan which was on the way to switzerland, the train left at 6.09 so in the meantime i went looking at the shops and playing on the internet. Funnily enough i thought the train left at 6.50 and when i went to catch it, it had already gone, so i ended up staying another night in nice.
