Monaco: a Good Place to Bond
Not many times of year find Monte Carlo unpleasant, weather-wise. Even so, the spring beauty of the Riviera and the crystal blue of the Mediterranean are particularly dazzling right now, and in the few weeks before Easter the tourism crowd is at its nadir. If you're wealthy - really, really wealthy - and enjoy the type of ambiance that the highest-end casinos and resorts offer, the time is perfect for a visit.
The Hermitage is one such highest-end place, where walking about in formal attire like 007 and his girl-du-jour is not only common but, at night, almost expected. This hotel is where the famous, the rich and and the beautiful gather. It also happens to be where Clint Barton and Natasha Romanoff foiled an assassination attempt and have carte blanche admittance on demand.
Even in a place where presidents, kings, queens, prime ministers and Academy Award winners have stayed, the two SHIELD agents have been accorded special privilege, down to the sea-facing suite and the Bentley transport from airport to hotel. Never let it be said that the owners, managers and concierge at the Hermitage have no sense of gratitude.
