Monaco musings

We went from the 'old town' of Monaco into Monte Carlo.......again having to park underground........and you'd hardly believe the comparison......I'm afraid that if I was rich enough to live in Monte Carlo.....I'd choose to live somewhere else....the pretty French coastal villages were far more attractive to me!

It's a concrete jungle.....growing ever upwards and outwards.......there's no real beach as they've reclaimed it to build on......I added some personal comments/musings to my page.
'One of the safest places on earth' refers to the fact that when we visited there were only 2 prisoners in the country's prison......that must be an incentive for the rich to live there!!
OH and D [as big Grand Prix fans] set off to walk the hallowed tunnel and visit the casino [where they saw the gold plated ferrari].......G and I decided on a stroll along the virtually empty promenade.......and a visit to the small Japanese Garden.....which is built on top of the coach park......and was both beautiful and so peaceful......I think a mini book of the photos I took there may be my next project.

And so ended our cruise.....though I do still have a few 'on board' photos that I've scrapped.
