Very nice coffee in Italian hotel then off on the A26 to the med. Should be in Monte Carlo by lunch... It is still raining at 10:30. Stopped for a wee at an Italian service station, I mention this only because it had a sign saying "No Porno". I can only assume this is the exception and not the rule.

10:37 Its stopped raining... almost!
11:00 Its sunny!

Monte Carlo - Very pretty from the hills above the town. Kipper drove a bit of the Grand Prix circuit. The town is mad as they are in full build mode ready for the race in May.

Then on to Nice which has a very nice sea front. Went for a walk on the beach and then on to Cannes. Recommendation, don't negotiate Cannes at rush hour. Decided to push on to Montpellier so we only have a short hop to the Millau viaduct tomorrow morning.
