Our final port of call was a surprise to all onboard. We were scheduled to spend the day in Marseilles, France, but due to high winds, the port of call was changed to Monte Carlo. It was a happy surprise for us to visit Monaco. We took the tender in to Villefranche-sur-Mer , then boarded a tour bus from there for the short ride along the cliffs into Monte Carlo.  We spent the day on a walking tour of the small principality visiting the highlights. The views of the sea, the gardens, buildings, and the luxury of the area left me wanting more.  The French Riviera has a sunny appeal that draws individuals from around the world. I, too, was drawn to the sun, surf, and beauty—and anxiously await my return to the French Riviera.   As the final port on our Mediterranean cruise, it was the “cherry on top of the sundae”. We truly enjoyed our entire cruise and found this port to be a sweet ending.
