An afternoon walking around Monaco.

. Our World Tour Adventure ., Monaco

Monday April 7, 2014 Ludovic and Marisol drove us a mile to Monaco and dropped us off to explore this tiny country or principality as they took their 19 month old daughter to a playground.

After a few hours they picked us up then took drove us touring the towns after Monaco and a quick trip to Italy then to a delicious seafood restaurant. We decided to take a break day today, Sunday, as we have not been off our bikes for 12 days. Ludovic and Marisol are wonderful hosts.

Tomorrow we ride into Italy!
