30th October 2009
Dubrovnik today for our passengers, Venice tomorrow, life does not get much better than this!
The blog is a bit of a photo gallery today; all the shots were taken in Cadiz Spain on Sunday 25th October during our call there. Cadiz is a great port of call, it’s not a touristy city at all, and in fact most of the visitors are Spanish which gives the city a really local feel. The Spanish are a stylish race, they seem to be able to achieve a cool look effortlessly, they are rather like the Italians in that way! As you can tell I really like Cadiz, it would be great for a long weekend away. Most of the huge fortifications of the city were built to keep out us Brits, you’ll be pleased to hear that was a couple of centuries ago!

Bye for now.
