Menton

As there was no way to watch the grand prix without paying big bucks, we decided for the second best option, a local café in Menton. Watching the grand prix with locals is an experience in itself and although the comments on tele were in French we had a great view of all the action. Especially the old man, drinking pastis, were a sight in itself! The grand prix of Monaco is excellent! Unfortunately, Dutchman verstapppen had to quit due to technical problems.

Menton is best described as grannyville. Its like the retirement place of the cote d’azur. Even the building looks retired. But its nice and quiet after all the noice the grand prix. We sat down on the boulevard and watched the oldies rock and roll past by. The gentleman on the picture is the best we spotted!
