Monte Carlo was covered in barriers
and sound systems for the forthcoming F1, so perhaps not the best time to
visit, as it was difficult to pick a way through them.
MC Novotel very comfortable and
the Salade Nicoise is to be recommended.
Silver Wind is as splendid as
ever and several crew remembered TSH and Diva. Especially the wine waiters and
sommelier. TSH had his first Silversea Danish of the year, which did not
disappoint. This was followed in the afternoon by his first beer.
St Tropez was less glamorous and
more quaint than either expected but walking round its narrow streets and along
the harbour was very pleasant. Many SUPERyachts.
TSH saw a quite large octopus
moving along the harbour floor which he thought was a good sighting – Diva was
less impressed as it had disappeared before she got a chance to see it.
Referendum notes: The Nice taxi
driver thought we should stay in with our semi-detached advantages (Euro,
Schengen etc). But he also wanted Nice to get independence from France. Two
people from USA thought we were in the Euro, which made travel very
convenient.
