Venice
28 Mei 2022, Itali ⋅ ☁️ 70 °F
Arrived in Venice and got to our adventures using GPSMyCity app to guide us to all the highlights. You can see Venice on tv and in movies a million times, but walking the streets, crossing the many bridges, looking at these ancient buildings hovering over the water... it's magical.

It was rather cold and windy and we actually got caught in a downpour at dinner but it was still stunning.Baca lagi

Headed to Trieste to board our ship. The weather was COLD and we were wondering if we were going to have to purchase sweatshirts! Definitely not what we had planned!

Kotor
30 Mei 2022, Montenegro ⋅ ⛅ 75 °F
Montenegro! What a beautiful arrival. We loved watching the tv in our room to see how we approached through all these inlets. We were mesmerized on the deck for the whole arrival watching little villages, churches, racing cars, along the waters edge.
Kotor is stunning! Built right up to the mountain, with wall leading up to the look out high above the city (we wimped out on the 1300 steps to get up there!). It's a beautiful, medieval, walled city, alive with commerce and great food.
We went on a food and history tour and our guide was amazing. He is born and raised in Kotor and explained the whole history of Yugoslavia to us in a better way than ever heard before, we talked about the tradition of Slavs and the food history that connects us all. He was so proud of his home and so gracious in sharing it. It was fun walking through the city and people calling out to him and vice versa.
The departure and watching the sunset from the deck was equally beautiful!Baca lagi

Corfu, Greece
31 Mei 2022, Greece ⋅ ☀️ 72 °F
Corfu! The first of our Greek Isles.
We chose to do a hop on hop off so we could get around to see a little more of the island than just the port.
We got to this area with a really long, low bridge over the water I would have loved to have walked but we didn't have a ton of time.
In town, we browsed and wandered and walked a lot just to take in the stunning views.
The water was so clear and there were so many boats.
Bill bought Dawn a beautiful silver bracelet and earrings to remember the island.Baca lagi

Santorini
1 Jun 2022, Greece ⋅ 🌬 77 °F
Santorini!
There is a reason this is the iconic Greek Island - it is stunning! It's rich and stark and captivating. Everywhere you look is something else beautiful.
We decided on a tour that would get us each end of the long island and give us a little more perspective. Plus, it included an awesome plate-breaking lunch, so how could that be wrong?
The island was crowded, not just with our ship, but others and I think we would love to come back and spend more time really exploring. This was a great scratch the surface trip!Baca lagi

Mykonos
2 Jun 2022, Greece ⋅ 🌬 72 °F
Mykonos is apparently the party island and back in the day was a gay hang out. Now it is pretty much all touristy, but the tiny, cobble, winding roads were so charming and the water is absolutely stunning.Baca lagi

We took an excursion from Mykonos over to Delos to see the ruins from 3000 BC that are amazingly intact in many places.

Zadar, Croatia
4 Jun 2022, Croatia ⋅ ⛅ 82 °F
Zadar, Croatia. We were originally supposed to go to Drubrovnik but I am so glad we got shifted. Zadar was beautiful. Charming streets, beautiful views, friendly people. Cherries are a thing and our guide bought a bag and fed us throughout the walk.
The sea organ is amazing.. we could have just sat there enjoying the view and listening to the organ for hours.Baca lagi

Trieste
5 Jun 2022, Itali ⋅ ☀️ 79 °F
Rude ending to our cruise. Rather than docking in town, the ship docked at this industrial yard and we had to get bussed back to the heart of town. It felt like "well, we got all we could out of you - now off with you!"

We finally got a taxi to get us to the airport where we were picking up our rental car. However, the rental place wasn't open yet and it wasn't really clear if it was actually GOING to open. Eventually it did and Bill dusted off his manual driving skills and tackled approximately 14000 traffic circles over the next many days.

While waiting for the taxi there were all these lamborghinis that we were hoping we got to drive!Baca lagi

Florence
5 Jun 2022, Itali ⋅ ☁️ 90 °F
We did Florence like a boss! Dawn had found a parking garage near St. Mark's, navigated us there and then over the next 4 - 5 hours, we did as much of Florence as you possibly could in such a short timeframe!
It was sooo hot that day, but we powered through and saw so many amazing places, and also sat with a beer in awe of St. Mark's. Definitely need to go back!Baca lagi
