FEU DU MONACO

Monaco, France

 

All of a sudden I felt star-struck. I mean here I was driving into Monte Carlo. I would never have guessed that I would be driving down the coast of some famous place. Celebrities and high rollers. Rich people. There weren't any lights in Monte Carlo, but I had to drive through it. Right next to it is Monaco. Princess Stephanie stopped by to chat while I was at the harbor. If you believe that, I should become a politician.

Beautiful harbor. Incredible looking boats. They were having a yacht show, in fact. The place is about as crowded as St. Tropez. Park in the first place you find because you don't find many. I got lucky in Cannes and parked right along where I wanted to take photos, but here I had to walk a bit down a street to get to the waterfront. You can see from my photos that I was out in the middle. You can get out to each of the towers but I didn't take the time. Didn't have enough francs in the meter.

Here's how I saw it:
