The drive up afforded a few interesting sites:
The special wine show at the local Champion supermarket.
A rich middle aged woman washing her Mercedes at the local U-Wash - dressed entirely in white linen. What you might not be able to see from the photo is that we are exceedingly close to the coast here - ocean is probably visible through the window in the back of the U-Wash stall.
Pete getting friendly with a Lamborghini at the local gas station.
We loved the views on the drive to Monaco - this is still France - and in my opinion far less spoiled looking than the crowded Monaco harbor.
We managed to take a few self takes. This one was snapped from atop our Euro-Mobile across a busy 2 lane, cliff side road. We had to take breaks for surges in local traffic :)
Pete striking a pose in front of the Monte Carlo Casino.
This was dinner. After a heady day with rich movers and shakers it was nice to enjoy the simplicity of pasta. Doesn't Pete's marvelous presentation make it look gourmet though?

Wow, I am almost sick to my stomach with envy...(how bad is that?!?)
It does look like you are having an amazing trip and I hope it continues. :)
I love this post! The scenery is lovely, the food is (as Leah said) making me sick with envy and the cars are way too cool.
