An entry from Ethel's travel diary:

Date: June 19, 1964

Place: Nice 

Left Nice and headed east – stopped at Monaco and walked up the high mountain (seemed like miles up) and finally came to the castle of the Grimaldi Family.  The Prince and Princess were not at home.  We walked around.  The town is set in the promontory.  It is quite a place to live (very beautiful and they don’t pay taxes !)

 

Abitato – looked like a deserted village – women in native costumes were about,  Very strong local color.  Bill would love to film it, I think.
