Ella has been very interested in joining me on my morning runs. Quinncy has not.
After a long day of driving from Girona to Nice we decided to run together in the morning. Our first night in Nice we stayed in the Hotel Suisse. Cristin and I saw this hotel when we vacationed in Nice in 2006. It overlooks the main strip and the beach. Here is a photo from our hotel room:
I got up at 6:15 and went for an hour run up and down the strip in Nice. It was a pretty flat run, so I decided to run up to the Chateau overlooking Nice. I thought it was a 9 metre ascent; however, it was about 20 minutes of stair running. Here is a video just prior to starting up the stairs:
I also shot a quick video of the Chateau at the top of the hill:
When I came back down Ella was ready to go for a run, here she is, bright and full of energy.
Ella was an excellent runner and we even stopped on a bluff overlooking the Mediterranean and did some sit-ups and push-ups. As you can see, she is getting quite buff:
We had a great breakfast at the hotel and gorged ourselves on boiled eggs, yoghurt, fruit and toast. The kids ate free, which was a grave miscalculation in Ella's case, as she ate more than I did.
We took possession of our apartment in Villefranche sur mer at 4:00, so we decided to drive to the location, find parking and spend the day on the beach.
