After getting organised we had breakfast and then headed to Nice train station for our train ride to Montpellier. The 1^st class compartment is comfortable. With communication now sorted we are enjoying the relaxing train ride. Views of the beach and countryside on the way.

Arrived at Montpellier about 3pm, had lunch at MacDonalds due to speed and ease. They have an ordering system like an ATM which made it easy except I thought goat was cheese and almost ordered a goat (charde) wrap instead of a chicken (poullet) wrap but was saved by DB’s translation app on his phone.

Whilst in the taxi queue, some Aussies heading to the carnival were waiting as well and asked to share our taxi which was great because our share was 40 euro. We arrived in time for a short rest before the organised dinner with North Avoca. It was a great social night between the 2 clubs. We had a nice 3 course dinner for 19 euro but unfortunately at 2am I was in for a bad night with food poisoning.
