Eze, Monaco, Monte Carlo












Our first day of our Tauck tour began with a trip to the medeival village of Eze, high atop a mountain, dating back to the 14th century. It's a beautiful village with lovely narrow streets. We also saw a car that Mike Joyce might want to buy--lots of bling, but we all know how understated Mike is. In the tour group we met a couple from Mission Viejo, a lady from Coto de Caza that knows Cathy Joyce because her son goes to Tesoro, and a couple that lives in Rockville MD, and knows Jen and the dentists she works for! We then went to Monaco and Monte Carlo, home of the Gran Prix and the Grimaldi family (you remember Princess Grace and Prince Rainier). See the picture of their modest home above. Also picked up some sensible shoes (see pix). For those of you not schooled in European bathrooms, I also include a picture of our gold plated bidet--a wonderful place to wash your cycling shorts and other unmentionables.

  1. As for the shoes,Vern I think you'd look great in the blue ones.
