The Ranger RZR by Polaris + Dog

This sexy vehicle was parked outside Stars n Bars where its owner was eating lunch. It wasn't until I went around the back that I saw the cute little Jack Russell.

The car, known as a Razor, is a side-by-side ATV (all terrain vehicle) only 50 inches wide, weighs 945 pounds and has a 4-stroke twin-cylinder 800 cc engine.

Dusk in Monte Carlo

It's dusk and the lights of Monte Carlo are coming on. This couple walk past the Casino building - ahead is Casino Square.

Moods - the Interior

Here's the interior of Moods, Monaco's Music Bar. Bags of low light atmosphere - great music - and a glass of champers - can't be bad!

Moods - The Fabs

Meet The Fabs - well, what else would you call a Beatles tribute band. They were great - from Italy but speaking English and French and singing, of course, in Liverpudlian! They do two shows a night, three on Fridays and Saturdays.

Tomorrow - we'll take a quick look at the interior of Moods, Monaco's Music Bar.

Moods

Let's have a night out at Moods, Monaco's music bar. You'll find the entrance at the back of the Café de Paris. Moods is open from 20.00h to 02.00h.

'Girls Just Wanna Have Fun'

Just across from Casino Square and looking down on Port Hercule, it's hard to tell if this is a professional photographer and her model or two girls having fun - or perhaps both!

The Arcade at Place d'Armes - the Fountain

At the far end of Place d'Armes, you'll find this charming fountain where you can sit under the trees and cool down.

The Arcade at Place d'Armes - People Watching

Sitting outside one of the coffee places in the arcade - a great place to watch the world pass by.

Salon de Jeux Privés

Reflections in the beautiful curved doors of the Casino's Private Gaming Salon.

The Carpenter and the Traffic Warden

It always amuses me when guys, seeing me taking photographs, suddenly go into 'pose mode.'

After I took yesterday's shot, I turned around to get a shot of the other end of Rue Princesse Caroline and there were these two smiling guys, waving their arms about.

On the left is Josef, who is a carpenter at the Monte Carlo Bay Hotel and on the right is Christophe who works in traffic control and code violations in Monaco, so of course there were jokes about where I park my car.

Thanks guys for a fun encounter!

Early Morning Shadows

The early morning sun throws shadows across Monaco's pedestrian street, Rue Princesse Caroline. That's Port Hercule at the far end.

You have to get up early to see this street with almost no one in it.

Valentino!

Valentino and his gorgeous dresses.

I know someone who'd love a Valentino original - in fact, she was born to wear one. Of course I'm talking about that ultimate style icon who resides at Barbie of the Day Towers in Villefranche-sur-Mer. You only need to click on the link to meet her.

Go girl!

The Grimaldi Forum

A view of the Grimaldi Forum from above. If it makes you feel slightly dizzy, let me tell you I was leaning over a balcony on the 19th floor of the Formentor building. The road you are looking at is Avenue Princesse Grace and Larvotto Beach is off to the left.

The smaller photo shows it from a slightly more normal angle and with a massive cruise ship leaving Port Hercule and its mooring on the digue.
