Journey Journal :Monaco Day 1 "On arrival"

Journey Journal :Monaco Day 1
“On Arrival”

Got in her car,Daranee picked up us from Airport to her home
A week after a week-away for short vacation in South of France and in Monaco, I just took some time to review my brief journal this afternoon. I want to say that we, my daughter and I, had such a wonderful time together with our friends around. And here’s the story sounds... 

GraceAnne (my daughter) and I left The Netherlands in late afternoon after my morning work routine on Wednesday the 22nd of July,flying from Eindhoven Airport by Transavia to Nice.(To mention the Airlines name here is not a marketing means to promote its company at all. I just wanted to provide clear information about airlines that fly from this regional airport to our destination) .



It was such a warm, bright,sunny day and we were ,pretty much, looking forward to our end terminal, Monaco.Not only to see the places, but also to meet friends is smashing wishlist.

We planned this trip for only 6 days,but our luggages could be horrifying.They were huge, stuffed with all women-need beauty tools and accessories you couldn’t possibly imagine.I think most women know and understand this. And I wouldn't go in detail here. Anyway,we didn’t have any problem with weight allowed or anything,we had purchased sufficient kilos when booked. But what I want to say is that besides those horrendous luggages loaded in, I also had a big present for my friend to carry with as a hand luggage too. Unfortunately,its size was too odd. I was not allowed to carry 2 hand luggages on craft. And I didn’t want it to be loaded with passenger baggages. So that present had to be left home. There will be other ways to cope with it later. Only the thought of not having it with me this time had been annoying me occationally.We left without present thus.What a pity ! and a nuisance !

Anyway,the plane departed on time and it took us an hour and twenty minutes before we landed exactly on the expected course.I greatly admired its punctuality. Also the flow of uploading luggages went well...fast and smoothly.By the time we were walking out to the arrival hall, Daranee,our friend just came in and we didn’t have to wait any minute to move on to our next station.Life is juicy,lifely and tastety indeed !

We arrived a bit late.But dinner time was never bygone. I could skip after-noon meals. Well, I in fact prefered not to have night meal at all, whatoever... but I’m afraid my daughter could hardly forbear that. And Daranee was concerned cause she’s one of the best hosts in our circle.That’s why she drove us to her restaurant in Monaco first (Royal Thai Monaco) and ordered some kinds of low-fat and easily digestible meals for us before driving back to her villa in the French region.


At bedtime,our first night at friend’s home.We slept easily and quite well,especially GraceAnne, effortlessly. Forasmuch when the belly is full, the bones will be at rest.
