... of the Paleo Frourio, an old Venetian fort. That was pretty cool. Then, late this afternoon we went through the Archaeological Museum.

... I employed my Italian skills to find the right place to go. They employed their English skills to go where I went. Then there's the CA couple that I ate lunch with one day, that also were on the shuttle with us. There's the little Italian couple that I met at the Meringue Party, who I danced with the woman for 2 or 3 songs. There's the couple that sat on the balcony with me during the official cruise send off, who helped me climb up to the balcony -- okay, actually it was a ...

We are on the MSC Musica at present cruising the Mediterranean. The blog is being written on the 13th floor of the ship with unobstructed views through floor to ceiling glass for as far as the eye can see. <br><br>Embarkment was at Bari &#8211; a city that will certainly have a claim to fame, but having been spoilt so far with the places visited, we put Bari into the run down, tied and not a necessary stop while in Italy category. The ship is huge; it ...

... on a chair no sleep with so many weird looking passengers seriously it was like the waiting room for hell.<br><br>So we tried and tried to get sleep but the crossing was terrible the boat was up and down and up and down. Just as I thought I was going to sleep this man came stumbling into the room with a cigarette and a cheap bottle of cider looking for his wife shouting her name when he found her he hit her over the head with the bottle and said some random things to ...

... really fun and an aussie guy and a turkish guy. Oh there was one english guy sorry who had come out to do some work there on his computer to relax for a week. <br><br>The dinner was meant to be a 2 course greek dinner but we had a little greek salad with one cube of feta and an olive some bread then chicken and chips god knows how I ate it as the place is rank and I can only begin to imagine what the kitchen looks like.

... about 10pm. We all tried to order some drinks which proved to be difficult. Our server spoke very little English and some of the girls were ordering drinks with very specific instructions. Eventually we all got our drinks and chatted the night away. Roaming dogs seemed to be the norm in this town as 3 stray dogs wandered into the bar and seemed to take a liking to our group.
