Monaco Palace

The palace is set up high on a mountain and this is a view of the city and the Mediterranean.

Monaco’s palace is set up high and the view os of the city below and the Mediterranean. The Cathedral is right next to it.

Eze

I just love turning a corner and seeing a small moment of beauty. Eze has interesting architecture and merits taking a pic.

It’s not the Jersey Shore.

La Plages Nice. They like their beaches with rocks. We like our sand in the states. But the color of the water is an incredible blue. Pops right out at you.

It’s not the Jersey Shore.

La Plages Nice style. We would call this a rick beach, not the nice sand we have in the states. But take a look at the color of the water. A blue that screams WOW.

Le Castellet

Another small town but this one enclosed by defensive walls on a mountain. Winding streets and of course another place to stop for a little something. It’s not like we are starving.

Cassis
