We wait on the platform for the train to Eze, it on the way back to Nice. Part of the French Riviera. I tell Anna I think we might be on the wrong side but we stay we we are because the monitor says A. We board the train coming from Monte Carlo, we sit down and i still have the same feeling that we're going the wrong way. The conductor comes to check our ticket. Looks at the ticket and looks at us. "Where you trying to go." We look at each other then at him, "Nice". He says, "We are going to Italy." The people sitting around us are looking, smiling. I look at Anna and burst into laughter to the point of crying. Or Italy...I couldn't control myself I thought it was so funny. So he instructions to get off at the next stop go under the subway and get on going the other way. Then he tells us next time to be more careful. We're just laughing and I don't know if it's because it was that funny or we were embarrassed just because it didn't matter. Regardless we get on to the next stop and head to Eze.
So we get off the stop it please and we start a walk nana has her math on her phone and tells me this way. But I'm still unsure of why we are there, I forget this is where the castle is. The one we are looking at this morning at breakfast . So now it's hot, suns beaming on us and we're walking up hill. I'm thinking to myself the last thing I wanna do is walk through another town. So I continue to ask Anna why are we here? What's here that we need to see? She's just not saying anything, she's probably annoyed I'm still talking😁. She doesn't understand what I'm saying so we continue to walk. We get to a gate but it's licked, and then we see on the ground in whute spray paint, "Eze" with an arrow. It's a very steep hill, she says "the castle on Wikipedia that's were we go, it's 40 minute hike, okay?" I am instantly excited.
It's a rocky trail up, steep but I love it. It's a workout and an adventure. We don't talk except to ask if each other are okay. We are sweating. They're are area hills really mountains. The pathway is along the edge, I look up often to admire the view of the ocean below us. Everything look so small.is like am looking at a post card. We are near the top, it's been 40 minutes. I smell garlic almost like a sauce. We look of our shirts during the walk, it's hot. All of a sudden we are there. We walk on to a street of very fancy cars and people. Ifeel like I just stepped into rodeo drive...
