Monaco: The best of it all in one little country
Monaco was exciting! The landscape was unlike anything I've ever seen. The roads were narrow and winding and fun to drive, the food was simple and complex, the city was quaint and extravagant, full of nature and technology... Monaco is a contradiction.
The harbor is equally beautiful in the evening and during the day... the small sailboats line up along side luxury yachts and ...
Day 16 - The Monte Carlo
... All of us were now getting very behind on our washing so we set off to try and find a laundromat and explore the coastal city. We took some tourist photos sticking our heads in the jack sparrow cut out and Todd in the Charlie's angels one too. We saw the building where Cannes film festival is held.

Villefranche... what's not to LOVE?!
... is perfect. It’s small, but nicely remodeled and has everything we need including, Internet, English TV, beach chairs, fridge for the diet coke, etc.
After Shelley gives us the grand tour we go in search of some insect repellent (I already have 4 GIANT mosquito bites!) Apparently they don’t sell bug spray here. I used some of Steve’s witch hazel on my current bites which seems to shrink them up a bit, and close the door to the back garden ...
