We spent a whole day here... and thats it. We ended up spending too much time in France, as we made stops in Paris, Dijon, Avignon, Lyon, Marsielle, and Nice. This meant we had to make it back to Amsterdam in 7 days.

When we got off the train in Monte-Carlo, our eyes opened big time and our jaws dropped (as expected, though). Every other car was a Ferrari, Bentley, Rolls Royce, Porsche, Lambo, or the brand new M5. We laid (hung-over) on the beach all day and sipped back cocktails. This beach was filled with beautiful people and on the water, close by, was the largest Yaughts i have ever seen. We got too warm in the sun, so spend some time in the world famous Monte-Carlo Casino, where we made some coin!

(Playing Black-Jack) We were always winning, and left with some decent cash!

Jason and I entered the casino and asked where the smallest black-jack table was and laid down a 50-Euro Bill each. Expecting a decent amount of chips, the dealer proceeeded to give us 2 chips each! Thats 25-Euro per chip! Initially we were pretty imtimidated, but went for it anyways. We were alwyas winning, and left with some pretty decent cash! Jason came out with 120 Euro's and 150 Euros for myself! Right on!

Next Stop, Italy.
