Look like the track has had the Richmond sealer treatment so will be super slippery

:lol: :lol: :lol: I've tried to keep costs as low without staying in Hostels etc. but yea, this is kinda a once in a life time trip, so am ticking off a few things along the way! I'm like in the luxurious position of having these big ticket events only a few hours away. Although to be fair, the 3 days at Monaco including gold seats on the Sunday cost me around 1200 euros which given how much you see tickets going for at Miami and Vegas, I actually didn't think was totally ridiculous, and my accommodation in Menton the next bay around is a nice apartment for around 500 euros for 5 days which yes, is still a bit steep, but it IS near Monaco during race weekend. But if you want to know the real secret to having money, being single with no kids helps :lol:

That secret isn't working for me since I don't have kids, but I guess that's because I live in Poland lol xD

Sounds like an amazing trip. Enjoy it! Had a week in the Dolomites last year and loved it. Lago di Sorapis was my highlight, albeit busy when we went.

When you have a wife and kids, you don't necessarily lose the money, but the freedom to say See yah, I'm back in 3 days/weeks/months!

Remember to visit Prince Albert's Car Collection Museum if you have time. Wonderful exhibition, and not just F1 cars but covering the whole history of automobile. Was there in 2021.

I was in Monaco in 2019 and didn't even know that this collection exists!

The aquarium wasn't bad either though.

This. I'm off to the Maldives next week, despite being in a cost of living crisis and having a mortgage. I'm by no means rich either. I've made plenty of mistakes in my life but none call me Dad :lol:

As Homer Simpson once said, "why do I have three kids and no money and not three money and no kids"

I am what was once upper middle class in Melbourne, and with 2 kids and a mortgage currently the only way we're staying afloat at the moment is a shitload of grocery and petrol vouchers my wife inherited from an old job. When those run out it's time to get my kidneys valued.

All sooking aside, enjoy the trip
