Pisa, Cinque Terre and Monaco.
Pisa:
Well everyone shoots the same shots of a building leaning over, so I took some of the other buildings, but of course I have to show the leaning tower. Not much else in Pisa.
Cinque Terre:
On the Northern Coastline near Portifino, is the 5 bays, which are beautiful and basically unspoiled by tourism, as they have strict rules for access of no cars. 12 Km's of rugged and beautiful scenery, you have to see it really. Stayed in La Spezia to get there, it was high in the hills, and was beautiful, got lost a few times here as the GPS was even confused..
Monaco:
Staying in Nice for a few days, as we had Monaco and Monte Carlo to see, and we are glad we did. We would have to say that these are just stunning places. Nice has a very buzzy feel, while Monaco and Monte Carlo are the picture postcard destinations of the rich and famous, and you can see why, it really lives up to the status they have as playgrounds, especially on a sunny warm day as we experienced today.
We visited the Palace of the Royal Family of Monaco, watched the precision of the changing of the guards. You do not see any litter or graffiti in these places, it is spotless.
Next Stop Cannes and the French Rivera
