Monaco


Since we were rushing back to Spain we did not spend much time in Monaco.  But, let's face it, what would we have done there?  Spend our money in the casino?  The country is just one city, so there is not much need to spend a week if you travel like we do. 


The city itself is quite nice.  Beautiful and by the sea.  It is clear that it is a rich country.  This is what happens when the country is a tax haven.  We spent all our time walking - as we always do.  We walked to the famous Formula-1 route, with its tight curves.  We walked in the old city, which is elevated.  You can see the rest of the city very well from there.  It was a really beautiful mid-summer day we spent in Monaco.
