Garden Crane

The joys of Monaco - massive cranes in the Casino Gardens.

Bentley Dreams

Reflections of Casino Square in the wing of a Bentley.

Diamonds and Crosses

Seen in Monte Carlo yesterday. Are these stockings (or tights) trying to copy the design on the Louis Vuitton handbag?

Folon's The Fountain of the Birds

Jean-Michel Folon's La Fontaine aux Oiseaux is a sculpture I've always loved and we've seen it before but taken from the other side of this street - so here it is from back.  It stands on le rocher.

Larvotto Beach

Larvotto Beach on a day when it's not warm enough for beach clothes.

Skinny People

If you are having a 'fat' day,  just look at your reflection in one of the curved glass doors alongside the casino!

Reflection at Dusk

A corner of Fontvieille at dusk.  Fontvieille is the area of Monaco reclaimed from the sea.

This was taken from outside the palace on the 'rocher.'

Concentration

I couldn't decide which photo to show you today so I'll show you a photo of a girl, at a bar on le rocher,  doing what we all spend too much time doing - staring at a computer screen.

A Rock and a Cigar

A rock, a cigar and fish to look at in the Japanese gardens.

Monaco by Night

The Hotel de Paris in black and white.

Drama in the Sky

Port Hercule on a day we had dramatic clouds roll in.

The Head of the Dog

The 'Tête du Chien' (head of the dog) that looms over Monaco.  This photo was taken from Fontvieille, near to the Parc Paysager.

Fishing at Cap d'Ail

Double Cuteness

It doesn't matter your age, everyone enjoys looking at the boats in Port Hercule.

Crocodile

A crocodile of young kids, probably on their way to the Oceanographic museum.

Oceanographic Museum - the Wonder of Fish

The wonder of fish at the Oceanographic Museum.

The Washerwoman

Shafts of sunlight pass through the fountain and land on Renoir's La Grand Laveuse (the Washerwoman) - by Renoir - Guino 1917. It stands in the Parc Paysager of Fontvieille.

Moody Blues

Reflection between two boats in Fontvieille Harbour.

A Gentle Sunrise

A gentle sunrise over the Grimaldi Forum on Larvotto.

Kicking the carpet

This girl has just kicked the rolled-up blue carpet into place.  It's a setting-off point for the jet-skis on Larvotto.
