Monte Carlo, Monaco



From Nice, we took a day trip to Monoco: a beautiful, ritzy city in a tiny country along the coast surrounded by France.  This fancy city full of expensive cars, fancy stores, and wealthy people made us feel fabulous for the afternoon.  We saw the most famous casino in the world, and the hotel that Selena Gomez stayed in in her movie Monte Carlo.














We laid on the beach for hours, drinking milk shakes and enjoying perfect weather: sunny, a blue sky, but not too hot to be uncomfortable with a tiny fresh breeze.  It was heavenly.  We got lunch at a cafe ON THE BEACH of the french riviera, which made us feel fantastic and was a wonderful, ritzy experience, perfect for such a fancy place.



We enjoyed walking through the gorgeous japanese gardens because you could see everything from that one spot: up close gorgeous gardens and flowers and a little pond, a beautiful colorful city on one side, the glorious sea on the other side, and the breathtaking french alps in the distance behind the city.  It was the perfect combination of everything great to look at in a landscape and an overwhelmingly beautiful site.


It was a lovely day in a little country!
