So we made it to our hostel and can I tell u I hate the rain!!!! It seems to be following us everywhere we go... there is no escaping it. But before we got to Nice we took this incredible train ride... one of many I guess but this one was my favorite. I wrote it out perfectly in my NEW journal (because yes my very nice Italian made journal is floating around France... maybe the hand full of entries will get published and I'll become famous without even trying. Thats the one good thing that could come from a lost journal.) Anyway, back on topic... the train ride was right along the Mediterranean Sea for the most part. Try and imagine the darkest green you can. Thats the color of the trees spread all along the mountains and every so often there are these villas with pail white walls and salmon colored roofs. With beautiful flowers outside every window ledge (that was for u Brecky... you'd absolutely die!!!). Top all that off with a stunning view of the sea... no ordinary sea... a teal blue color that fades in and out of a deep royal blue. I hope these words are descriptive enough because it's practically indescribable. Could you imagine waking up to that view every morning? Some people have all the luck huh?
I am hoping tonight that I can get back on the internet and upload some pictures.. but it once again depends on time. I love you all very much. Miss u! Keep me posted on your lives too! xoxo
P.s. Spain was incredibly fun but short... Barcelona... (or Barthelona if you speak Spanish Spanish) was neat but that is a story that must be saved for when I get back home. You will understand why when you hear it.
Love you!!!

Your description painted a wonderful picture in my mind. I would love to do that someday. I will have to get all the scoop from you when you get back. I will try my mental telepathy and see if I can send some of our "warm" sunshine your way. Maybe if a few others join me, we can make it happen......... right ! haha. Love you.
Hey Danielle,
It seems I'm the first once again to put a comment on your post. That's probably because I check your blog every day to see if you wrote anything new. Oh, the scenery you described is just wonderful. I really do hope you got some pictures and that you'll put them on your blog. Did you get some of my flowers too? Well, everything's all right here. Dason, Dustin, and Jaden have spent the night for Monday and Teusday; let me tell you, it has not been easy. I still love them though. Well Love You LOTS! Hope you get those pictures on your blog soon. Don't have too much fun without me. Love you!!!!!
Your sister Breck
P.S. I can't stop listening to Les Miserables. I probably know the whole thing by heart by now. See what you've done. Haha! Just kidding! Love you lots. Breck

Hey you two. Gosh we sure are having fun traveling with you both. Thanks for letting us tag along for the ride virtually. It's as good as being there.(almost) Anyway, keep making the most of every day and don't worry or think about us much. Stay in the moment, enjoy each day in such a way so you can look back on this trip the rest of your lives with wonderful memories. No regrets. Have fun and be yourselves, your better selves. Not everyone has such an opportunity. I hope all these countries can quickly recover after you come home. I'm sure you've left you mark on more than a few towns and villages. Wow! I'm happy for you both and look forward to hearing all about it. I Love you Dani, and I'm very proud of you.
Love DAD
Hi Danielle! I'm Jodi's (your neighbor) Mom & a friend of Sean A'lee's. I was reading her blog about you so I decided to check out your trip. Sounds like you're having a WONDERFUL time! Make sure you write down EVERYTHING! I still look back over my journal from my Europe trip over 20 years ago. I wish I had kept better info about my most recent trip to Ukraine--so write it all down. If you checked out the beach at Nice, I hope you weren't too shocked. Very different from American beaches. Can't wait to read more about your trip! Be safe!
