Get me outta here!

Slot Machines

Coffee

How I wish they had a Nespresso shop in Monaco or Menton.  In fact the nearest is Nice. Love all the colours and that you can order a variety of coffee that isn't sold on their internet site.  After I'd ordered, I noticed a chocolate and ginger coffee - so I must go back ...

Sunset at the Coulée Verte

The 'coulée verte' (green corridor) in Nice is a dream for photographers.  Here it is at sunset.

Steve McCurry in Monaco

Only 9 days left to visit the fabulous Steve McCurry exhibition in Monaco.  What an amazing photographer he is! You'll find 100 photographs here, including his famous 'Afghan Girl.'

He writes: My life is shaped by the urgent need to wander and observe, and my camera is my passport.'

You'll find the exhibition at Salle d'Exposition Quai Antoine 1er, Monaco till 11th November. 13h - 19h. Closed Mondays.
