Checked in and got through immigration with a huge sigh of relief... I was an overstayed by two days. We have to leave Thailand within 90 days, but when I checked this morning I was two days over. We were a bit worried and I even chose a kind looking immigration officer to queue up. The least I expected to happen was a fine. The worst was have my visa taken off me. But, all was good. She said and did nothing, just the usual stamp and go. Phew!!!

Landed at 6.30am. Took a while to get through immigration, chilled out with a coffee at the airport, in a cab and got to H10 Universitat hotel about 10am.En savoir plus

Barcelona, arrival
17 juillet 2019, Espagne ⋅ ⛅ 29 °C
Checked in about 9am, unpacked and went for a walk as nothing much open. First impression? The stunning architecture, clean streets, low buildings (well, compared to Bangkok) and (omg!) the cool air - so clean and almost chilly.

By 11am we were hungry, which isn't very Spanish of us, so it was tapas and beer in an outside cafe and some good old fashioned people watching.

We checked out a few shops and headed back to hotel for a much needed nap then off to the Rooftop bar for a wine.

Slow day. We were absolutely knackered after only a few hours sleep over the last 36 hours. Ordered room service and "hit the sack".En savoir plus

Another fab day! Booked the City Tour bus for two days at 40€ each. Got on at 9.30am and finished at 8.30pm. Wow, we were knackered.

Our first stop was the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (National Art Museum of Catalonia). Stunning ramanisque, renaissance, gothic and modern displays.En savoir plus

Next was Camp Noi (Football Club of Barcelona). Robin really enjoyed that tour and we had a nice beer in the stadium.

Lastly, we'd prebooked tickets for 6.45pm to Sagrada Familiar, an incredibly beautiful architectural triumph by Gaudi. So back on the bus at 5.30pm after a quick change of clothes - such a hot day today. This was the highlight of our day. The building is still ongoing 135 years after it was started.

We did at least get seats in the top deck each time.

The day ended back on the hotel's roof top bar for wine, cheese and cold cuts - yum yum yum.

Robin's worried all our days are going to be this exhausting... he should be worried 😉.En savoir plus

Slower start today - on the bus at 10am'ish. First stop was the cable car port ride that goes from the hills to the beach. Had a wander along the beach, then back on the cable car and on the bus to our next destination.En savoir plus

A few minutes up the road and we were in the sky again, this time on a gondola heading up to the Montjuïc Castle, a fortress 173 metres above sea level and build in 1640. It has great history but we couldn't go down into the castle. We could just walk around the fortress, but the views were spectacular.

By 3pm Robin was weak from hunger, so, again, it was tapas and a beer 🍻.

The temperatures are about 28c - a bit cooler than Bangkok. And the sun sets at 9.30pm! It feels weird still sitting outside at 9.30pm and it's still practically daylight.En savoir plus

We headed back out after our second day of busing and headed to the Gothic Quarter. By now we were fairly tired so it was a quick look around and a bite to eat. We'll probably head back here tomorrow.

Barcelona, last day & boarding the ship
20 juillet 2019, Western Mediterranean ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
A much needed sleep in this morning and then we were back at the Gothic Quarter for another looksee. Still very impressed with the architecture and churches in the area.

Check in for the cruise was between 1pm and 7pm. We arrived at 2.30pm. Check in was ridiculously easy and quick compared to flight check-ins. Our bags were taken at the building entrance, straight up to to the check-in desk, then on the ship and up to our room. We're on the Aloha 12th deck, A710. We explored the shop, had dinner and were on our balcony by 10.30pm as we set sail!

We've got 8pm dining each night in the Botticelli dining room. We can eat there every night with the same people or miss a night here and there if we've got something else to do. We've got a good group: Mark and Pat from Ontario, Canada; Elvis and Jeanne from Jacksonville, Florida; and Rhonda and Tom from California. We were the last table to leave the dining room tonight, so that tells a story.En savoir plus

Cruising to Gibralta, Spain
21 juillet 2019, Western Mediterranean ⋅ ☀️ 25 °C
It's a full day at sea arriving in Gibraltar tomorrow morning.

Very easy day, just exploring the ship again and trying, unsuccessfully, to get our bearings. At 11am we went to a lecture about Gibralta; what to do and what to expect. Then we found a couple of deckchairs by one of the pools (there are three pools) and cooled off for a couple of hours.En savoir plus
