Cocktails in Monte Carlo

---

After spending the day in Cannes at the beach and shopping we went to Monte Carlo for the evening. The drive was stunning, Monaco is absolutely beatutiful, and so ritzy! We walked around the palace and then headed to the Grand Casino. Unfortunately it was closed because there were big celebrations all around as it was the day that Prince Albert officially became prince. So we went to another casino, equally as stunning, and sipped cocktails overlooking the ocean while the sun set. There were so many big yatchs, ships, boats, with so many wealthy beautiful people. We all sat there dreaming about what life would be like. The girls all talked about how romantic a holiday would be here, and suprisingly even the guys were taken back by it all and said it would be a stunning place to bring a girlfriend. We paid through the nose for our cocktails (approx $25 ea) but it was worth it just to be there. Later that night after the bus left a few people stayed behind and watched the parade as prince albert walked around, followed by fire works.
