Our trip to the Med 2017

This posting is a work in progress.  Selecting photos and working to get a more pleasing format is ongoing.  But such as it is, here it is.

It's been almost a year since our last cruise.  In October 2017 we cruised to the Med for forty-nine days.   Here are a few pictures from the Med cruise.  I have thousands of more pictures but here are a few.  Click on any to see a larger view.
    Crossing the Atlantic took six days and brought us to the Azores.  This trip took us to many places I'd never been.

 We left Ft Lauderdale late in October so the weather was often on the cool side.
Boyd and I made it a point to have a local beer in each port we visited.  Here we are in Horta


Here are a few examples of life imitating art.

Florence was awesome if you love art and history.  This is where the Renaissance began.  Everywhere you look there is something of beauty.














Pompei - Nov 10-12
    I was surprised to see how large and well developed the city was.  This was not some humble village, but rather spacious and beautiful homes.
