PAPHOS, CYPRUS

6th June – Paphos, Cyprus Yesterday we visited Limassol in Cyprus. In the evening, we travelled literally just around the corner – roughly 50 miles away – and dropped anchor about 10:30pm, just off Paphos… also in Cyprus, of course. We could see the lights of Paphos and hear music from the shore. On a couple of occasions, I could...

ATHENS

Today, we arrived in Piraeus, a major cruise port adjacent to the capital city of Greece. We’ve been to Athens a couple of times before… on our first visit, we travelled into the city by public transport and did the whole ‘visiting the Acropolis’ thing by ourselves. On our second time here, we escorted shore excursions to the Acropolis; tours...
