54 Days on the Moon

[drron]

We are now heading back to the new city.

 

[drron]

And now we went for the obligatory Tapas. Actually got 3 glasses of wine. The first white was awful the other white and the red OK. The tapas as usual were mini tapas.


were mini tapas.

 

[drron]

We then had some free time so I went for a walk.

 

[drron]

I then decided to have some real tapas here.








The menu.












So I had the Iberico ham with cheese sandwich, smoked salmon and gorganzola which was the best and anchovy on tomato.









Now time to go back to the bus.

 

[drron]

We went into a ham shop.










Some street art.

Our Baltic cruise was on Norwegian Sun. A little less than the six star Moon

A very, very old ship.

We enjoyed the NCL experience and would love to cruise on one of their newest ships like Prima, but then we’re also not Silversea/Seabourn/Cunard people

@drron did you discover why they built right up to the gorge?

Also was the cruise embarkation port at Lisbon?

Basically the old town was built by the Moors and they didn't need a wall along the Gorge side so people did what they wanted to I guess.
Yes we got on board in Lisbon.

 

[drron]

Back on board and once again we bombed at trivia. But I regained some pride by winning at putting with 2 holes in one.
Then dinner once more in Atlantide. The daily menu.



We both started with the soft shell crab. It was nice.



Mrsdrron had the lobster tail again and I went for the fillet steak. We were having dinner with another couple from our trivia team. I ordered mine rare and the other fellow ordered his medium rare and I am sure they mixed the orders up.






I did have the tomato soup which I love on Silversea. We both ended with the cheeses cake.




It was another good night.

 

[drron]

Come the morning and we were in Cartagena. Able to sleep in as only a 9.30 am excursion. So it was already light. Good views from our balcony.










Some rowers over at the Naval base.

 

[drron]

After a breakfast in the Arts cafe we were off on an excursion. This turned out to be not so good. We were put into a bus and drove around the city for 45 minutes then let off the bus just outside the Port gates to walk to the Roman ruins. First from the bus.

 

[drron]

And the view from where we get off the bus. Yes that is the Silver Moon.


And off we walk for the rest of the tour.

 

[drron]

There was another Silversea tour going up the Tower but we walked on. More Spanish electrical wiring.

 

[drron]

Now we are at the Museum at the Roman City site.

So far most of the display is not from Roman times.
