Vigo, Spain

After leaving Cherbourg and Normandy, we spent a day at sea. For some, that's relaxing, hanging around the ship, taking in the activities or sitting on deck. For me the trip was about the ports of call so I was anxious for the next day. When we arrived in Vigo, I was up early, and took pictures as the sun rose.

We enjoyed a sunny day in this beautiful port city.

When we exited the port terminal, an accordion player was outside lending to the atmosphere.We all took a picture with him,

and then we saw one of our waiters, Eddie, and took a picture with him.

After we left the terminal area, we ventured into the city, through shops and restaurants and a cool church.

I noticed that witches seemed to be a theme in the shops. Apparently, in the Galicia region of spain, witches are thought to be good luck. It took a while to find this out, nobody spoke enough English in the first shops we saw to understand what we were asking and our Spanish is non existent. We discovered this merman And this Vespa Soon it was time to make our way back to the ship. We captured a few more memories as we made our way back to the ship and once again, it was time to say goodbye.

Back on board, we sat on the balcony to wave goodbye to Vigo, watching the tugs lead us out of the harbor.
