The French Riviera (Cote d’ Azur)

The Côte d’Azur is the Mediterranean coastline of the southeast corner of France. I have never seen water this beautiful- so many brilliant shades of blue! Jesse really wanted to go swimming, but the water was freezing! Afterwards, I was glad I jumped in, too. It was very ‘refreshing.’ It helped keep us alert for the ride to Barcelona!

Monte Carlo was a beautiful place to pass through

There are pictures of Princess Grace scattered around the city. Grace Kelly was an American actress who married the Prince of Monaco (Rainier III) in 1956 to become “Her Serene Highness The Princess of Monaco.”

A fancy casino in Monte Carlo

Kids weren’t allowed, so we had to settle for walking around the grounds.
