Rainy day in Nice

April 16th--Today was a rainy day in Nice. After being cooped up all morning, we decided to venture out for lunch. We have found this little dive by our apartment that has great food, so we headed there. They had some kind of steak-k-bobs as their daily special so that's what we had. After lunch, we came back to the apartment and watched a movie. Once the movie was over, we began to see some sun breaking through the clouds. Well as you may have noticed by the lack of blogs for the last 2 days, we have been without Internet service in our apartment. So we decided to head into town to search for an Internet cafe. Well the skies didn't look so good towards town, but we decided that the storm was probably blowing over. We took the bus into the downtown area and as soon as we got off it started sprinkling. Then we heard a few thunder claps and saw some lightening. Before we new it, it was pouring rain. We ducked under an awning of a building to stay dry. Then we looked up and noticed that it was hailing. At this point, we decided that it was not worth finding an Internet cafe. Luckily, we noticed a bus stop across the street. So once we saw the bus pull up, we took off running and hopped on the bus. We came back to the apartment and Mike decided to check the Internet one more time. For whatever reason, it decided to start working again. I guess we got drenched for nothing! So we "retro" posted our blogs for the last 2 days. Hopefully the rain will move through tonight since tomorrow is our last day in Nice.
