We spent most of the day on the train between Venice and Nice. A big fat guy sat next to Emily and kept farting in her general direction. I used the bathroom at the Milan station and I think it flushed right onto the station floor, because on my way out I saw a sign that said not to use the bathroom while the train was stopped.

The train arrived in Nice at 4pm. We immediately booked tickets for Paris and got ripped off by the cab driver on the way to the hotel (use the meter!!). After dinner I went out looking for Sake, because the book I'm reading (Memoirs for a Geisha) keeps talking about it. The 200 asian restaurants around our hotel were all closed, so I'll have to try again tomorrow.
