Day 14 August 19, 2011- Monte Carlo, Monaco

Monte Carlo, Monaco is the smallest city/country being only 3/4 of a mile.  Let's just say I loved Monte Carlo.  I liked all the expensive taste that was present about this city (I'll admit, I sometimes have expensive taste, but I normally keep that to myself). It was such a nice place and really fun to see all the expensive cars everywhere. I had been looking forward to Monte Carlo mainly for the Casino.  Now, I don't gamble, but I am a huge James Bond fan and Casino Royale was filmed in Monte Carlo. I just wanted to see inside the casino, but the place did not open until 2 p.m. Bummer! Before we went to the casino, we did go to Old Monaco which has the cathedral, the palace, museums, and a lot of pictures dedicated to Princess Grace Kelly.  We took a tour of the cathedral and the palace which was really neat because it provided a lot of information that I liked.
Brett was excited to see this for the next day
