Nov 1: I took advantage of the fitness center again to spend an hour on the elliptical… I've missed working out so much!! We had a fantastic picnic on the wall by the ocean and also near the helicopter pad which is how people fly in. Our picnic consisted of salad, mascarpone & gorgonzola cheese, guacamole (I'd been craving it since we left!), a warm baguette, and beer. We walked around town which was completely dead… everything was closed. We found out later it was for Day of the Dead! There was a fair going on that we walked through and [View Full Entry]

Drove to Monaco from Siena, had our last lunch on the way at the Auto Grill. We stayed at a Marriott on the beach, normally $600/night and with Thad's discount it was only $100/night :) Of course, the internet was $18/hour (and you had to buy an hour) so no luck using the internet there either. Thad drove back to Italy to return the rental car and take the bus back while I worked out at the fitness center. Dinner was pizza and salad with a waiter who kept insisting that the pizza was for one person, but we'd seen how [View Full Entry]

Luxury at its Finest Europe » Monaco » Monte Carlo
No trip to the Côte d'Azur would be complete without a stop in Monaco. Monaco is an independant principality that is basically a small urban area on the coast of France. It is the second smallest country in the world (Vatican City is the first) and the most densely populated given its small size. It's legendary wealth comes from its status as a tax haven for Europe's wealthy. Well that, and a beautiful location on the sea. To get to Monaco, you basically take an exit off the highway in France, high above the ocean and drive down towards the water. [View Full Entry]

Bonjour tout le monde. This will be my last chance to update for a bit as we are travelling a bunch over the next bit before heading home. Today we ventured to Monaco making this our 4th country on our little 3 week visit... but getting there wasn't that easy. There were even a brawl between some men at the bus station trying to get on a bus because it was late... Nice! Any way, almost an hour late our bus arrived and we headed East again to Eze, a medieval town atop a hill. We walked through the backstreets and [View Full Entry]

Ciao! I just came back from Monaco for the weekend... oh my god, so breathtakingly beautiful! When we got off the train, we walked through the train station which is carved into the top of a cliff, so we could see a beautiful ocean view right from the train station. That's when we knew it was going to be a good weekend! Our hotel was in a town called Eze village, a quaint little town in between Monaco and Nice. Our hotel was faabulous - we had two apartment-style rooms for 5 girls each (yes there were 10 girls total... madness), [View Full Entry]

Monaco Tonight Europe » Monaco » Monte Carlo
Day 8 (5): After the pitstop in Avignon, we made our way down to our campsite in Biot. After our dinner, all of us got dressed up to head over to Monaco, one of the richest countries in the world! "À la votre, À la notre, Santé!" All 51 of us, plus Jodie and Ben, cheered and tapped our glasses (alright, plastic cups) together and looked at everyone in the eye. The old saying goes, "If you don't make eye contact with everyone in the group, you'll have 7 years of bad sex." Haha, then someone else had cut in and [View Full Entry]

Today was my alone day as I paraded around the Cote d'Azur through a small hill town called Eze (funny thing, in Hebrew Eze means goat) to the Ferrari and Porsche laden streets of Monaco. Eze I took the bus first to Eze (heading east towards Monaco) and fell asleep on the bus! Luckily I woke up right at my stop and jumped off. whew! Eze was charming, super small, with nothing to offer except for touristy cafes and boutiques selling nicknacks, porcelain, cloths, and art from the few galleries that were hidden in the rock. But frankly, it was exactly [View Full Entry]
