Down, again.

This place, Monte Carlo (and Monaco), was not my favorite stop on the Europe trip.

Was it beautiful?  Yes.

Was it luxurious?  Yes.

Was it over-the-top?  Yes.

What really put me off it was the new-ness and the “Las Vegas”-ness of it.  Please understand, it’s not gaudy and grotesque like Vegas.  It’s just the overpowering reminders money and…well…money, I guess.  It didn’t feel like any other place on the trip.

Beautiful, though, looking down on the marina.
