Then we were off to Monte Carlo to see the site of the Grand Prix race course and the Casino. When the Prince originally decided to introduce gambling long ago, he was concerned that his own people might lose their money. No current Monaco citizens are allowed into the Casino. This place has the world’s highest per capita income. We saw Ferraris, Rolls Royces, Porsches, Mercedes, BMW’s and the occasional Smart Car or Hyundai. What a parade of cars. We did not go into the Casino as we would have to pay and we have already seen it in the James Bond Movie Tomorrow Never Dies. We did take time for an awesome ice cream cone in front of the Paris Café. We did not go to the Paris Hotel restaurant, Louis XV, which specializes in meals of 500 Euros per person and has wine that costs 25,000 Euros a bottle. Better to just have ice cream.
