Drove the coast road from St Tropez to Monaco with the top down......stopped in the centre of Cannes for lunch

Had to wash the car as the flies and dust had it looking terrible.

28 degrees today so I am glad I got the air con condensers replaced...it is on all the time......radiator cooling fans are doing a lot of work.

Cars in St Tropez are fantastic......Monaco even better.....Lamborghini,Mclaren,Ferrari......lots of Porsche,Bently and Rolls Royce.

Drove around the GP circuit a few times today.......down to a standstill at the entrance to the tunnel........redline in first and second......really childish but what a noise

Sorry Jake.....no 918.......2 Enzo's today though !!!.....1 on the road and 1 in the Ferrari workshop.....a chrome wrapped Mercedes SLR, a Ford GT (40), Mercedes SL 63 Black, a Lamborghni Aventador convertible in black with blood red interior, 911 Turbos are comonplace as are all Ferrari models.....Bently and Rolls Royce are everywhere.......

I blagged a valet parking space outside the Gucci shop in the Hotel de Paris parking zone (parking in any car park here is 20 Euros for a day!).......made my day when we walked past and we saw people stop to take phone pics of our Boxster

Lots of photos to post up when we get home.

Porky is fuelled up and we are off to Lake Como in the morning.
