We only had Bailey for 5 days because she was adopted by my cousin! She was already old when she came to our foster group so she just needed to find a home.

We tendered to the port of Athinios, visited Pyrgos village, the village of Oia and finally enjoyed a traditional Greek meal and celebration in Pyrgos. Opa!
On Corfu island, we took the “Scenic Island & Flavors” excursion which stopped in Lakones; a small seaside town, a small restaurant with a great view, a monastery, a Koum Kouat distillery, and Corfu town.
In Dubrovnik, we went on the “Game of Thrones – Venture Through King’s Landing” excursion. It was led by a young man who had several appearances in the show as an extra, so he had actual “behind-the-scenes” knowledge.
We woke up early to get up on the upper deck to watch the approach into Kotor. The route weaved through the Bay of Kotor, past the Church of Our Lady of Škrpjela and Saint George Catholic Monastery, built on their own tiny islands. We spent the day on a self-guided tour of Old Town.
We spent the day exploring Zadar’s old town. Taking in the old churches, Roman runes, and rich history, along with the modern additions of the Sea Organ and Greeting to the Sun.
In 2024, we visited Venice, Italy before embarking on a Greek Island Cruise.
