Pisa Marseilles

Up early and on the road by 7. Stopped at Riomaggiore on the Cinque Terre Coast. Very scenic coastline. Stayed for about an hour then back on the road. Took the motorway around Genoa- heavy rain at times. Lost count of the amount of tunnels we passed through. More wonderful scenery when we could see it. Our aim was Monaco for lunch. We got to Monaco, but while trying to find a parking place, we nearly ended up in the dock for a flash private yacht, and the next effort put us on the road to Nice. Our time in Monaco was short, and informative - next time, get a train! We lunched in Nice - a very different experience to lunching in Italy! We got to Marseilles around 5pm. A stressful time trying to get parking, fighting with the keypad to get in the accommodation. Dinner in the street at one of the many places available. Relatively early night.Read more
