Cruise Day 6 - Genoa

Genoa is a very busy port city, and this is the first time we have had another cruise ship in port with us. It is also MSC, which is no surprise as I can see a large building topped with the MSC logo on the skyline. This may be their head office.

Today we had a nice walk around Genoa. It is a large city with a lot of wealthy history. Large cathedrals and churches, a whole street of palazzos. We found an elevator that supposedly took us up to a castle but we couldn’t see the castle.

We took a different elevator down the hill, walked a bit more, then stopped for a snack and a beverage.

Then we walked back to the ship and relaxed until dinner. Mostly the food has been very good. Last night I had roast chicken that was dry and bland. That is the only meal that I left most of on my plate.

Tonight the dessert we chose was Sacher Torte, which we remember having in Vienna many years ago. The MSC version was tasty, and much sweeter.Läs mer
