Bonjour! This week’s carte postale shows the casino gardens in Monte-Carlo, Monaco!
Located in the French Riviera, Monaco is the second smallest country after Vatican City.
When I hear Monte-Carlo, I think of glamour, James Bond movies, the Grand Prix, and the American actress, Grace Kelly, who became Princess of Monaco in 1956 when she married Prince Rainier.

Until the next Wednesday Postcard, à bientôt!
I visited there when I did my study abroad. My roommate and I visited the Grace Kelly rose garden which in October wasn’t in full bloom, but was still beautiful. I would like to visit again sometime.
Cheers,
Carolyn
