Almost home!

Sorry that I haven't posted for the last few days. We were out and about all day long and I didn't have wifi when we would get back to where we were staying in Caillan. 

Our last few days of our trip were a whirlwind of little towns, walking tours and beautiful views of the Mediterranean. We visited Aix-en-Provence, known for its universities and the artist, Cezanne. We took a boat ride in Cassis to see some of the calanques (inlets) and had a lot of fun getting splashed around because we were sitting in the front of the boat. We toured the Fragonard perfume factory in Eze. We got to see the richness and luxury of Monaco, including Ferraris and Bugattis and Lamborghinis, and even were on a little part of the Formula 1 race course. We finished the day yesterday in Nice by sticking our toes in the aquas of the Mediterranean and a little shopping. 

This morning, we had a 2:30am wake-up call this morning (some of us chose not go to bed at all), were at the Nice airport by 5:00am, in Zurich, Switzerland by 9:00am. Now, after a 9-hour flight, we are sitting in Toronto waiting for one more flight home to Cleveland. Phew! 

 Oh, the places we have seen, the things we've done! I'm sure we will have many stories to tell you next time we see you!
