Costa Fascinosa
okay I lied.. the Commentary will not be coming for a few days because the internet on the cruise is insanely expensive so we are doing our connecting to the outside world in cafes on shore.

Too bad it was closed when we got there, so we just looked at the outside. We left there and headed back to our hotel for another swim. It was 33c today, which is about 95 degrees! Another scorcher.
