icunme Sun Mar 19, 2006 18:48 UTC I have always wanted to go to MC - your pages make me want to go NOW. Great photos and information. Grazie, Carol | easyoar Thu Apr 14, 2005 17:37 UTC Nice tips! I like the first restaurant tip, where US$41 and up is "about average price". Yes it is possible to spend a lot of money in Monte Carlo! The food mostly sounded delicious. |
