So there's me thinking I had finished with blogging about the cruise. And then I realised I had forgotten to include my write up on Adjaccio which came after Livorno and before Barcelona!
So here it is ....
How lovely waking up to blue skies in Corsica. The ship pulls in to a pretty harbour while we are eating breakfast.
I don't know much about Corsica, but Napoleon Bonaparte was born here in Adjaccio.
It's lovely to see from our balcony that we are very close to a lot of cafes. We can also see an open air market being set up
We leave the ship and take a short walk over to the market. It's a food market full of colourful produce.

Andy buys some olives and cheese and wine. It all looks lush.

People were getting ready to listen to some French folk music and eat. I love seeing the ship from land. It is so huge
We go back to the ship after wandering around
We spend the afternoon sunbathing on our balcony. Andy drinks his wine and we eat cheese and olives for our lunch. It's lovely to look at the harbour and Adjaccio
Ship now leaving the harbour |
Goodbye Adjaccio |
I hope we come back one day |
Tomorrow we are arriving in Barcelona, Spain. We've always wanted to go there. Hope it's as warm as it's been today.
At dinner tonight, Sanjoe, our waiter gave us a warning to beware of pickpockets in Barcelona. Don't let anyone get close, don't wear jewellery and keep wallets and purses within your clothing in front of you. Wow, I'm wondering why, if pickpockets are so well known about, Spain hasn't tried to clamp down on them especially in well known tourist spots where they hang out.
Okay so this is the link to take you to my post on Barcelona as I somehow got my posts mixed up. I wanted to insert this post inbetween my posts on Livorno and Barcelona but I need to do a few tutorials first and I haven't got time.
Thank you for reading ...
