... staff than patrons. Cost €10 to get in! The interior is like one of the palaces I’ve been too; plush seats; pull levers on the pokies. The tables are old-style with the croupiers using real rakes to literally rake the money in. Even the toilets are self-cleaning. The whole place is quite surreal. Not as big as I imagined, and I think it was quiet because u had to pay, whereas the casino at my hotel was always packed & free entry with ...

... the most beautiful boats in the world are in MonteCarlo...

Language is more interesting in france. If we try to do the simple tourist things then most people can work out what is going on but when we try something else eg. going to the doctor (sue has been sick) going to a chemist.. or finding a Laundamatt.. then the language thiig is a bit more animated....

Well, I am writing this entry from Switzerland. Sitting at the Geneva airport. My flight from Barcelona to Geneva (to connect onto a flight to Nice) was delayed and then delayed again which meant I missed my connecting flight. Was originally angry about this cause I have lost a day of travel time, but it has given me the opportunity to sort some photos and begin my Monte Carlo relax period. Was fortunate that there was a later flight with seats available and that ...

We didnt do much in Cannes except go to the beach. Got there pretty early and were only planning on spending the day and night but then the realisation dawned that it might be the last chance to be at the beach again. SO... we decided to stay another night and have a final day at the beach. We took a walk around the old town ...

POLSKI:
Ile razy bylismy w uroczym miasteczku Villefranche na francuskim Lazurowym Wybrzezu, tyle razy chcialam pojechac do Monaco. Moj grafik jednak mi na to nie pozwalal. Tym razem spielam sie w czasie i zaraz po porannej pracy pobieglam na dworzec kolejowy. Pociag do Monte Carlo, w obie strony, kosztowal mnie cale 5 Euro, a jazda trwala 15-20 minut. Widoki sliczne, ale najlepsza byla jednak Starowka Monte Carlo oraz samochody ...

... to the chapel to enjoy the Christmas day dinner. The dinner was very nice...we had a four course French meal with a shrimp salad to start, a turkey with a chestnut/fois gras stuffing, a cheese course and a chocolate mousse I believe as well. We also had a choice of red or white wine with our meal as well as some water. I sat next to my new Irish roommate and this older woman from England; the three of us conversed the night away until it was ...

Day 18 Day from hell - the worst travel day ever. We couldn't make our way out of Italy, never travel on a Sunday it Europe it is a nightmare. We somehow missed our train, and then had to wait several hours for the next one, The next train didn't go to the stop we needed to get to Monaco, so we had to wait a couple more hours. Finally get to the station to get the train to ...

So, somehow Freda and I ended up from that Gypsy Kings concert in Portofino to the VIP section of the F1 Grand Prix in Monaco. Let me explain... So Freda and I were staying in the beautiful town of Cap DŽAntibes casually looking for some day work of the yachts nearby, if anything came about. This guy at staying at the hostel said that they were looking for serving staff to serve private parties ...
