Time flies on a cruise. It’s our last day today – we are in Venice and the weather is beautiful if a little on the cool side. The internet has been tediously slow so I have not put in much time on the computer.
Our sea day was very relaxing – calm water and sunny skies and a full agenda of activities if you wanted to be busy. We managed to attend Tobias’ cooking demo and the lecture on Venice. We joined Jan and Fred for dinner in Signatures and had a lovely time – those of you on CROSS are in for a special treat meeting these two lovely folks.
We wandered about on our own in Dubrovnik – walked all the way around on the wall and then through the old town. They have done a truly remarkable job restoring the devastation from the war. Last night was the SSS party followed by the Dover Sole/Rack of Lamb/Chocolate Soufflé menu in Compass Rose.
Today they had the gold/platinum event – they let us out on the bow on deck 6 for the sail in and provided freshly made bellinis and lots of tasty snacks (as if we needed any more food). We are docked right by San Basilio and they have a water shuttle running to Piazza San Marco. We tagged along with Jan and Fred and took the vaporetto down the Grand Canal and then just meandered from the Piazza.
Just finished up final packing and now we are heading back into Venice for dinner. All in all a wonderful cruise. I will post pictures when I arrive home.
PS JoAnn: I did not meet your clients. Maybe next time!
