Sea Day

 What a nice relaxing morning and slow start to the day.  Yesterday we took a bus to Seville from the port of Cadiz.

Riding the Ho HO bus around the city is a great way to see what everything looks like and where they are.  This city is a mix of many different architectures and eras.  The old site of a World Exposition had some unusual modern buildings, some still use and many not.  There was also an avenue of buildings representing many different countries which were built for a different world event.  They are used to this day.  

We departed the bus to walk back to the cathedral area thinking it was fairly easy to do.  As it was in a historic area, the streets were all angled and street signs seemed non existent.  After walking quite a way we finally asked and were sent back to our start point to begin again in the correct direction.  We asked at least three others to finally get to the cathedral.  Whew  By that time we were ready to sit and have something to eat!!

The day was cloudy and occasionally rainy so we chose an inside seat to try paella and sangria for a light lunch.  I may have a photo to forward, but it was good in any case.

From there we went early to our meeting point as we were a little concerned about getting lost again!!A little cocktail party was held for 3,4 & 5 star mariners so we attended that.  Hopefully after our SA cruise we'll be 4...free laundry!!

We enjoyed dinner after that and met some new people but we opted for an early night.  Our calves are still aching from the fort in Alicante. Plus G tripped over the comforter and fell yesterday, skinned elbows and knees on the carpet and pulled a decorative wire out of the wall.  They must think we are really clumsy after this second crash!!

Today will be housekeeping day and just relaxing on the ship.
