PosH MoNacO :o





23 September 2009

Adam Hotel itself just an ordinary hotel. The interior was stiff  with the brown ambience that made the hotel looks warm and ancient. I didnt really this hotel that much. the architecture was monoton and remind me with the hotels in the scary movie. The next day, i have breakfast with the other tour's peoples and many of them told me creepy story(i know it!!!!) my friend told me that when she was shower yesterday, she didnt lock the bathroom's door and when she opened the door, she cant open. she knocked, she hammered, and even she yelled but no one answering. She start freaking out til 10 minutes later her sister open the door. She said, " Oh gosh, thankyou so much, you dont know how much i love you" it made us laugh. its scary and funny at the same time. but the weird thing was her sister said that she opened the door not because she heard people scream or other loud sounds, she open because she want to wash her hands. she didnt hear anything, and yeah it sounds creepy for us because we know that the bathroom wasnt soundproof. 
The breakfast just ordinary. but i still love the bread, milk and the omelete. even the cereal wasnt that good.
so, end of the creepy story here. we begin to start our journey today. And you know what, before i went up to bus, i met my university's friend. lols. how amazing it was! her name is stephanie. she had the same faculty with me, tourism . The different is i was from travel industry management, and she was from hospitality. We dont know each other, so we just smiling. lols. i dont know why, but i always meet somebody that i know wherever i go, even the farest destination. is it cool? ;)

Nanananana, we're going to the Monaco.
Monaco is a superrrrr rich and small country.(Even Jakarta is much bigger than it :P) We re going to the Monte Carlo. Monte Carlo is the capital city of mOnaco. Even it just a small country, but never underestimate it. People who lives in MOnaco are not the real Monaco. There are still some of local peoples there, but mostly people who lives there are from another countries from around Europe, and some American. Monaco is the second  smallest country beside Vatican. Monaco is French's neighbour. Its located  in South Western Europe and surrounded by sea and rocks. Its a kind of cliff, and the view was so cool! i mean, its suitable for the rich people who want to spent their holiday here. its nice, really. beach, harbour, many ships and cozy restaurant everywhere. but why i said "the rich people?" it because i think peoples who want to spend their holiday here, must have lots of money.  everything here are so expensive. start from the product, the foods, restaurant, and  the casino. Mostly people who stay here were going to nthe casino to spend their money. i dont like gambling. it maked you addicted and theres no use for that. hmm...
the other reason why i told peoples in here are rich, its because the peoples that i met there (almost all of them) were wearing branded things. clothes and everything, they were so chick and glamour.you will understand when you look by yourself, and theres no general car here. If you look around you, you just see the recently Mercy, BMW sport, ferrari, limousine (even i never look that in my country, i just saw it from tv show or movie. :P) and also Jaguar. The funny thing is people who lives here are the rich peoples from around Europe. They move here, that simple. So theres no one begging for money or poor people here. We only visited MOnaco, but not stay here. Because the hotel price for one nigh was unbeliefable. seriously. 

We're taking lots of pict here, then we're going to the Palace. Reiner Prince II's Palace. We're taking pict in front of that palace, but we cant go in. uhh, so pity. :( 
For information, Monaco is the Constitutional Monarchy, and Prince Albert is the head of state now.House of Grimaldi has ruled Monaco since 1927. (Girls, do you feel familiar with the name of Grimaldi? :d It because i just knew at that time that perhaps Meg Cabot get inspiration for her books, Princess Diaries from here. hehehe).
Maybe you guys already know that Prince Rainier III married with Grace Kelly, the amrican actress. Monaco is not the part of European Union, and Monaco not allow the local citiaen to gamble there.
Monaco is well known by the tourism. so, want to introduce some of the entertainments. ;)
1. They have Formula One: Its called Monaco Grand Prix. It s one of the most pretigious automobil races in the world.
2. Monte Carlo Rally
3.Football
4.Rugby

There are 3 religions in Monaco: Roman Catholic(my religion :D), Anglican( a kind of Catholic, but with the different rules), and Jewish.

Anyway, our lunch was very yummy and the place was very comfortable. :)
The design was simple with the touch of mediterranean and mirrors.
i ate beef steak and mass potato with the sauce, and aslo theres the salad for appetizer and smoothies for the dessert. yummy :D i also look people order jumbo burger and other type of food that looks so yummy! I want to! I want to! but yeah, we just can order according to the tours budget. 

after we finished get sight seeing and shopping(or just look around :P) we're going to the church near the palace where Grace Kelly is burried.

And we continue our journey to Nice, the nice city. ;)
Nice is well known as "Cote D'Azur"
I will tell my story about Nice later. ;)
After this, we re going to the Nice Hotel.
