Day 12 -- Nice

Monday, 18 September 2023

A day with no rugby match. I realized that Monaco is only about 20 km down the coast, so I took the train there. I walked the entire length of Monaco. From the train station in the middle, all the way to the northeast border, all the way to the southwest border, and then back to the train station. 8.27 miles in about 2.5 hours.

Is this Berkshire Hathaway's latest venture?

The Monaco Train Station. I like the way it curves off into the distance.


Then back to Nice. I met up with Justin and we got dinner at an Italian/seafood place on Cours Saleya. The gnocchi was really good. Sorry I didn't get a picture. 

Justin gave me a Welsh Dragon pin. Thanks, Justin!

I am a proud Wales supporter!

    1. Nope. But nobody on citystrides.com has completed Monaco yet. If I was here for about two more days, I could do it.
