We had three port stops to start the cruise portion of vacation. One was new and two others we had visited some time ago. Departing the ship, photographers wait to take photos. Usually, we pass right by them but this time, I decided to cozy up to the bear. Of course, Barry wasn’t the least bit interested…
Our quick visit to Malta has come to an end… we have definitely added this to our “must return” list! We will be branching out to the beach area. Malta is famous for its turquoise blue waters and we plan on hanging out in an oceanside flat before too long!
After reading about a nearby town, we decided to head for Mdina after our morning coffee. Only about 20 minutes away, it was well worth the visit! (Try to ignore the fact that the cathedral is crooked in its placement! oops)
It’s always a plus when you find cafe that serves a decent sized cup of caffeine! It gets embarrassing to order two or three. After a restful sleep, we got up to explore Valletta! What a charming place…
Up early, we packed our bags and headed for a quick excursion before the tram station. It’s time to say goodbye to our little Apartment Duomo. This cover photo is from the next surprise destination…
Jetlag got the best of me this trip… I’m usually pretty good at it. Yesterday, I just didn’t have it in me to post. So this will be the end of Florence and the beginning of a new location! Our journey took us through Barcelona… just in time for a beautiful sunset!
Constantly checking the weather before leaving Texas, we were happy to see the reports were slightly off. It was supposed to have quite a bit of light rain…but we have had very clear, sunny skies. It’s not hot, but it is warm. Perfect exploring weather!
Well over a year ago, we planned a TransAtlantic cruise from Southampton to Port Canaveral. True to my nature, that meant a “pre-cruise” trip had to be organized. This time, I decided not to tell Barry where we would be going… with backpacks packed, we began our journey.
Here we go again! Tahoe to Texas and Texas to Tahoe… twice a year we make this crazy trip to transport our puppies! Traveling with Border Collies is… well… special :-) We will be seeing this same view for miles and miles and miles!!!
