Monaco


We are staying at the Fairmont Hotel on the waterfront with a fabulous view of Monaco from our balcony. The hotel is in Monte Carlo, the same neighbourhood as the world famous casino. Today we took a private tour of Monaco and the surrounding area in perfect weather – sunny and mid 20s with a sea breeze. As part of the tour we travelled the route of the Monaco Grand Prix which was held two weeks ago.
Photos 1 and 2:  views from our balcony
Photos 3 and 4: the Prince's Palace
Photos 5 and 6: plenty of fancy yachts in Monaco! Nice place for a tax haven eh?
Photos 7 and 8: the Cathedral where Princes Grace is buried with her husband, Prince Ranier. For those who don't know, Princes Grace was American actor Grace Kelly.
Photos 9 and 10: two good looking tourists who are making their contribution to the local economy.
