Ding ding, Round two of Monaco. We left the cathedral and made it over to the palace, which was closed until April and then we got some lunch. The lunch was tasty at this little Italian place but they did not allow us to take the leftovers as there was dairy in the dishes. So we stuffed ourselves and waddled down to the aquarium. This place was huge and there was a top notch aquarium in the basement. After that we took a different path into Monte Carlo and got to the train station. It was packed on the train and we had to stand the entire way. When we got to Nice, we had traffic at the Negressco and we discovered that here is a film festival going on!
