Back On The Road Again
The Monaco Historique weekend was great fun for anyone who enjoys motor racing, great company, good food and a lot of laughter.
It was great to see so many British owned cars and drivers on the podium, notably Stuart Hall, Michael Lyons and Nick Padmore. Charles Le Clerc binned Niki Lauda’s Ferrari at Rascasse during a demonstration run – a bit embarrassing for him.
Of course at Monte Carlo,there always time to party especially if you are on a yacht.
Monte Carlo is do built up and when the streets are closed for racing, you can forget to look at what is right in front of you. Every time I’ve been here, I’ve felt quite closed in, as there is so overground and underground. From the other side of the harbour, you can get a sense on how crowded it is.
There are beautiful buildings but you have to look.
Our last night in Menton and another fab meal and in the morning it was time to say goodbye to Jim, Jane, Norman and Sue and hit the road again.
The weather is now gorgeous and France is expecting a mini heatwave this week, so we are heading to a pitch next to the beach for some sun, sea and sand. Our destination is Plage de Cavaliere. We took the motorway to avoid Nice and Cannes and took a small road over the hills behind and down from St Tropez to our beach stop.
