Meals & desserts I didn’t cook but enjoyed recently


Lots of travel so I was spoiled.  I must say while traveling the meals and desserts were excellent.  I may never cook again! I could only hope to have a creative chef.  I lost mine lol.





























 


 












Enjoy the eye candy!

Mediterranean holiday, Monaco and Monte Carlo

The 
Principality of Monaco
 is a sovereign city-state and microstate in Western Europe, located on the French Riviera along the Mediterranean Sea. It is the world's second-smallest independent state, after Vatican City, and is known for its wealth, luxurious lifestyle, and major events like the Formula 1 Grand Prix. 
The above is a reminder of what help google can be.  Our Guide was excellent but grasping it all in a short time impossible.  Enjoy!


Beautiful area and so relaxing.  A Cloudy day today but it didn't stop
Us from enjoying the day.





Monaco and Monte Carlo 










If you are at all challenged with walking don't do this tour.  Lots of walking up steep inclines.  WE DID IT!!!!!!!    




Monte Carlo



Monte Carlo is an official administrative area of Monaco, specifically the ward of Monte Carlo/, where the Monte Carlo Casino is located.

The principality of Monaco is sandwiched between southern France and the Mediterranean Sea; Italy is a short drive away. And Monte Carlo is one of Monaco's most popular districts.
