Thanks for the info. We are staying about a week and considering renting a car. Is this a wise move or a bad one? How bad is parking, etc? And can I drive on my Florida drivers license? We booked the Hotel Riviera Villefranche, between Nice and Monaco at a good rate. My main concern was making sure that whatever place we booked had air conditioning, considering there will be women decking out in cocktail dresses for the affair... there are also a lot of concerns among the people going about proper dress for the area. Any tips?
